Question

The sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 45. What are the 3 consecutive number?

Answer 1

i think the cosecfjtinf number is 8

Answer 2

Given that,

the three numbers are consecutive

The three numbers are

x

x + 1

x + 2

Sum of the numbers = 81

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 45

x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 45

3x = 45 - 3

3x = 42

x = 42/3

x = 14

Therefore, the three numbers are x = 14, x + 1 = 15 and x + 2 = 16
