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.
