Question

Three consecutive integers add up to 51. what are these integers?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the first number be x. Then as all the three given numbers are consecutive, then the next two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2. Now, according to the given condition in the question, the three integers add up to 51.Hence, we have obtained three consecutive numbers as 16, 17 and 18.

Answer 2

Let the three consecutive integers be X,

x+1 and x+2.

According to the question:

→ x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 51

⇒ 3x + 3 = 51

⇒ 3x = 51 – 3

⇒ 3x = 48

⇒ x = 48/3

⇒ x = 16

Thus, the integers are

→ x = 16

→ x + 1 = 17

→ x + 2 = 18
