Answer:

7 , 8 , 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume three consecutive number are,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

Multiplied by 2 ,3 and 4 respectively

2x , 3(x + 1) , 4(x + 2)

Sum of all = 74

So,

2x + 3(x + 1) + 4(x + 2) = 74

2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74

9x + 11 = 74

9x = 63

x = 7

So,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

7 , (7+1) , (7+2)

7 , 8 , 9

Well the answer is 13 and cannot be written in simplest form because 1/2 and 1/2 have the same denominator so you add them together and you get 2/2 which is a whole number then you add the other whole numbers but don’t forget the new whole number then add the 5 and you get 13 cm
