Question 483279: Dear Tutor,
Please help me with this question.I have searched Math On Call, Algebra To Go, and Geometry To Go looking for a way to find an answer.This is from the same book I was talking about yesterday. This is the word question: The sum of three consecutive numbers is 54. Find the three numbers.Thank you for your time.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let middle number of three consecutive numbers be x
Then the previous and the next would be x-1 & x+1
As sum of three consecutive numbers is 54, therefore
(x-1) + x + (x+1) = 54
3x = 54 so x = 18
Ans : three consecutive numbers are 17, 18, 19
