Question

Three consecutive numbers are such that when they are multiplied by 3,4and 5 respectively,their sum is 62 What are those numbers​

Answer 1

Let Numbers be x, x + 1 and x + 2

So, 3(x) + 4(x+1) + 5(x+2) = 62

3x + 4x + 5x + 4 + 10 = 62

12x = 62 - 14

12x = 48

x = 4

Hence, Numbers are 4,5 and 6.

Answer 2

Let the 3 numbers be

x,x+1,x+2

Therefore,

By the problem, when the numbers are multiplied by 3,4,5

we have

3(x)+4(x+1)+5(x+2)=62

3x+4x+4+5x+10=62

12x+14=62

12x=48

x=4

x+1=5

x+2=6
