Question 605686: The sum of three consecutive whole numbers is equal to four
more than the middle number doubled. Find the three numbers.
Please explain how to solve the process
Answer by lawdej(58)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let the three consecutive whole numbers is x, x+1,and x+2
x + x+1 + x+2 = 4+2(x+1)
3x+3=4+2x+2
3x-2x=6-3
x=3
the other two numbers are 3+1=4,and 3+2=5
so the three numbers are 3,4 and 5
