This is a problem where you should make an equation.
Let's say x is the first week. It would mean
First Week : x
Second Week : x + 5
Third Week : 2(x+5)
You need to add these up to make your equation. Your equation will look something like this :
x+x+5+2(x+5) = 431
Now you simplify.
2x+5+2x+10 = 431
4x+15 = 431
4x = 416
x = 104
That means they sold 104 Boxes in the First Week.
104+5=109
So they sold 109 Boxes the Second Week.
109 x 2 = 218
And they sold 218 Boxes the Third Week.

I hope I was useful!

xeze [42]

The sum of 5 consecutive odd integers is 145. These are the other 4 consecutive odd numbers. Now if we add all of these up we will get this : 25 + 27 + 29 + 31 + 33 = 145.

Hope I helped! ☺☼
