Plzzzz mark as brainliest

Let the smallest of three consecutive number be x, thus other two consecutive numbers be x + 1 and x + 2.

As per the statement, sum of these three consecutive numbers is 51. As such

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 51

3x + 3 = 51

3x = 51 - 3

3x = 48

x = 48/3

x= 16

The smallest of three consecutive number is 16. Other two numbers are

x + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

x + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18

Thus three consecutive numbers are 16, 17 and 18

Answer three consecutive numbers are 16, 17 and 18

Answer 2

Answer:

let the three consecutive numbers be x ,x+1 ,x+2

sum==>51

x+x+1+x+2=51

3x+3=51

3x=51-3

3x=48

x=48/3

x=16
