Corrected Question :

» The sum of three consecutive multiples of 3 is 72. Find the numbers.

Given :

» Sum of three consecutive multiples of 3 = 72

To find :

» The three numbers

Solution :

Let the three consecutive multiples of 3 be x, x + 3, x + 6.

  • First number = x
  • Second number = x + 3
  • Third number = x + 6

According to the question,

⟶ First number + Second number + Third number = 72

⟶ x + x + 3 + x + 6 = 72

⟶ 3x + 9 = 72

⟶ 3x = 72 - 9

⟶ 3x = 63

⟶ x = 63/3

⟶ x = 21

⟶ The value of x = 21

Substitute the value of 'x' in the numbers which we've assumed :-

⟶ First number = x = 21

⟶ Second number = x + 3

⟶ Second number = 21 + 3

⟶ Second number = 24

⟶ Third number = x + 6

⟶ Third number = 21 + 6

⟶ Third number = 27

Therefore, the three consecutive multiples of 3 are 21, 24 and 27.
