Question 35415: Find 4 whole consecutive numbers from which the sum is 236.
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find 4 whole consecutive numbers from which the sum is 236.
Let the 1st number be "x"
Next is x+1
Then x+2
Finally x+3
EQUATION:
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=236
4x+6=236
4x=230
x=57.5
That is not a whole number.
There are not 4 consecutive whole numbers whose sum is 236.
Cheers,
