Bonjour !!❤❤

Here is your answer ___________________ ____________________________________

Natural Numbers :

⏺ All counting numbers are called Natural Numbers. Natural numbers start from 1 , 2 , 3 ,4 ........ to infinity.

Let one number be x

Next consecutive number = x + 1

Next consecutive number = x + 1 + 1 = x + 2

Sum of the numbers = 243

The equation formed :

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 243

=> 3x + 3 = 243

=> 3x = 243 - 3

=> 3x = 240

=> x = 240 / 3

=> x = 80

One number = 80 ANS

Next number = 80 + 1 = 81 ANS

Next number = 80 + 2 = 82 ANS

✅CHECK : 80 + 81 + 82 = 243

HOPE IT HELPS....✌✌

Answer 2

Answer:

Solution: Let the first number be x

And second number = x + 1

And third number = x + 2

According to question

Sum of consecutive number = 243

X + x+1 + x+ 2 = 243

3x + 3 = 243

3x = 243 – 3

3x = 240

X = 240/3

X = 80

Hence first number = 80

Second number = 80+1=81

Third number = 80+ 2 = 82.
