Question

When three consecutive nos. are added the sum is 66 find the nos

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the numbers are 20,22,24

Answer 2

Answer:

21 , 22, 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the nos. be x, x+1 and x+2 (because they are consecutive nos.)

Their sum: 66

By the question, equation formed will be as follows:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 66

3x + 3 = 66

3x = 66-3

3x = 63

x = 63/3

x = 21

SO THE FIRST NO. IS 21

Second no. = x+1 ie. 21+1

SECOND NO. = 22

third no. = x+2 ie. 21+2

THIRD NO. = 23
