Question

the sum of three consecutive o dd numbers is 36 find the numbers

Answer 1

Let the 1st no. be x-------(1)
Consecutive odd numbers means that we have to add to every number
Therefore the 2nd no. will be X+2-----(2)
3rd no. will be X+4-------(3)
Adding equation 1,2,3 we get
X+X+2+X+4=36
3X+6=36
3X=36-6
3X=30
X=30/3
X=10
