Question 686479: In my math homework, there's a question that says "the sum of three consecutive numbers is 39. What are the three numbers? Show all of your work and explain your answer." I have no idea how to work this out! Help, please! Answer by vheroli(126) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 39/3=13
Therefore, 13 is one of the 3 numbers
To find the other two, add 1 and subtract 1
Like this:
13+1=14
13-1=12
Answers: 12,13,14
to check:
12+13+14=39
