Question

Thr sum of three consecutive multiples of 5 is 945 find the largest multiple

Answer 1

Hi friend!!

Let the three consecutive multiples of 5 be 5x,5x+5,5x+10

Their sum =945

5x+5x+5+5x+10=945

15x+15=945

15x=930

x=62

So, the largest number is 5x+10=5(62)+10

=310+10=320

I hope this will help you ;)

Answer 2

heya....

your answer is:

5x+5x+5+5x+10 = 945

15x+15 = 945

15x = 945-15

15x = 930

x = 930/15

x = 62.

The largest multiple = 5x+10 = 5 (62) +10 = 310 +10 = 320.
