step by step​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 18

17; 18; 19

Step-by-step explanation:

I divided 54 by 3 getting 18 flat. After that, I subtracted 1 from one of the 18' and added it to another 18 getting "17; 18; 19". Then I added them together to check my work and that's how I got it.

Hope this helps. :)
