Question

The sum of3 consecutive multiples of7 is 357. Find the smallest multiples

Answer 1

Answer:

118,119,120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first multiple be 7x

Then, the other multiples would be

7x+1 and 7x+2

Hence,

7x+7x+1+7x+2=357

21x+3=357

21x=357-3

21x=354

x=354/21

Hence, the numbers are,

7x=354/21×7=118

7x+1=118+1=119

7x+2=118+2=120

I hope this helps...☺☺
