Question

The sum of three consecutive numbers
32
is 156. Find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer :

The final answer is 52.

Step-by-step explanation :

Let's take one integer as x.

We know that, the consecutive one would be (x+1) and (x+2).

So the three numbers are x, (x+1) and (x+2).

It's given that they sum up to 156.

Hence,

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 156

3x + 3 = 156

3x = 153

x = 51

Putting the values of x :-

• x = 51

• (x+1) = 51+1

                = 52

• (x+2) = 51+2

                 = 53

Therefore, the three consecutive numbers are 51, 52, 53.

Now we have to find a number 'divisible' by 13 and 52 is exactly divisible by 13.

Therefore, The final answer is 52.
