Question

The sum of two consecutive multiples of 7is 777 find these multiples

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+7)+(x+14)=777

x+7+x+14=777

2x+21=777

2x=777-21

2x=756

x=378

Therefore,substitute x value in the two assumptions done above .You will get the answer.

Answer 2

Numbers are 252, 259, 266

Given : Sum of Three Consecutive Multiples of 7 is 777

To Find : Three Numbers

Step By Step Explanation :

The Three consecutive multiples of 7 will be $\textsf{x, x + 7}$ and $\textsf{x + 14}$. As their Sum is 777, We can write it as follows :

$\longrightarrow\textsf{x + (x + 7) + (x + 14) = 777}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{x + x + 7 + x + 14 = 777}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{3x + 7 + 14 = 777}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{3x + 21 = 777}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{3x + 21 - 21 = 777 - 21}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{3x = 756}$

$\longrightarrow\textsf{x = 756/3}$

$\longrightarrow\textbf{x = 252}$

• Now Three Numbers are $\textsf{x, x + 7}$ and $\textsf{x + 14}$. Substitute the value of x in each and we get 252, 259, 266.

Therefore, Numbers are 252, 259, 266
