Question

The sum of three consecutive natural number is 51 Find the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let three consecutive natural numbers are x,x+1 and x+2.

Since x+x+1+x+2 = 51

=) 3x + 3 = 51

=) 3x = 48

=) x = 48/3

= 16.

Hence three consecutive natural numbers are 16, 16+1 and 16+2.

= 16,17 and 18.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x, x+1, x+2

so, (x) +(x+1)+(x+2) =51

x+x+1+x+2=51

3x+3=51

3x=51-3

x=48/3

x=16
