Question

the sum of three consecutive natural numbers is 114find the number

Answer 1

answer is:

let the three consecutive natural number be x,x+1 and x+2.

now, according to the question,

=x+(x+1)+(x+2)=114

=3x+3=114

=3x=114-3

=x=111/3

=37.

thus, the three consecutive no.=37,(37+1)=38 and (37+2)=39.

hence,37,38 and 39 is the answer .

mark as brainliest.

Answer 2

Sum of three consecutive no. =114

Let first no. be x.

Second no. be x+1

And,Third no. be x+1+1=x+2

Now,A/Q

Sum of three consecutive no. =114

X+1+x+2+x = 114

2x+3 =114

2x =114/3

2x =38

X =38/2

X =19
