Answer» ✬Correct Question✬ $\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bullet$ The SUM of three CONSECUTIVE numbers is 63. Find the numbers. ✬To Find✬ $\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bullet$ To find that the other three consecutive numbers. ✬Given✬ $\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bullet$ GIVEN that is Sum of three consecutive numbers = 63. ✬Solution✬ Let, First number be x Second number be x + 2 Third number be x + 4 According to the question, $\longmapsto \sf{x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)} = 63$ REMOVING the brackets, $\longmapsto \sf{x + x + 2 + x + 4} = 63$ $\longmapsto \sf{3x+ 6} = 63$ $\longmapsto \sf{3x \: = 63 - 6}$ $\longmapsto \sf{3x \: = 57}$ $\longmapsto \sf{x \: = \large{\cancel\frac{57}{3}}}$ $\longmapsto \sf{x \: = 19}$ Therefore,The value of x is 19. So, $\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\sf{x \implies \:19 }$ $\sf{x + 2 \implies \:19 + 2 = 21}$ $\sf{x + 4 \implies \:19 + 4 = 23}$ THUS,The other three consecutive number is 19,21,23. ___________________________________
