Question

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 57 . Find the number.

Answer 1

Answer:

The numbers are 18,19 and 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive numbers be x, (x+1) and (x+2).

Their sum = 57 (given)

x + (x+1)+(x+2) = 57

3x + 3 = 57

3x = 54

x = 54/3

x = 18

Therefore,the numbers are 18,19 and 20.

Answer 2

Answer:

answer is 18 19 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

let the three consecutive numbers be x, (x+1) and (x+2)

Their sum = 57 (given)

x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 57

3x+3 = 57

3x = 57 - 3

3x = 54

x = 54/3

x = 18

therefore , the number are 18 , 19 and 20
