Answer 2

Answer :

• Consecutive numbers are 31, 33 , 35

Given :

• The sum of three consecutive number is 99

To find :

• The number

Solution :

Given that ,

The sum of three consecutive number is 99

• Let the first consecutive number be x
• Let the second consecutive number be x + 2
• Let the third consecutive number be x + 4

Then , let the consecutive number be x , x + 2 , x + 4

Now , According To Question,

⇢ x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 99

⇢ 3x + 6 = 99

⇢ 3x = 99 - 6

⇢ 3x = 93

⇢ x = 93/3

⇢ x = 31

Then ,

• First consecutive number is 31
• Second consecutive number is 31 + 2 = 33
• Third Consecutive number is 31 + 4 = 35

Hence , Consecutive numbers are 31 , 33 , 35
