the sum of three consicutive natural numbers is 78. Find the numbers

$\huge\fbox\red{❥AnsWer:}$

• sum of three consecutive numbers is 78
• let the first number be x
• therefore second number = x+1
• and third number = x + 1 + 1

➡️ x + x + 1 + x + 1 + 1 = 78

➡️ 3x + 3 = 78

➡️ 3x = 78 - 3

➡️ 3x = 75

➡️ x = 75/3

➡️ x = 25

• therefore first number = x = 25
• second number = x + 1 = 26
• third number = X+1+1 = 27

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+1)+(x+2)=78

3x+3=78

3x=78-3

3x=75

x=75/3

x=25

x+1=26

x+2=27

25+26+27=78
