The three numbers would be 27, 29, and 31. 27 + 29 + 31 = 87 The smallest of these numbers is 27 so that's your answer.

Please solve.<br> -7 = z over 2 + 1
mafiozo [28]
-7=z/2+1

What you first need to do is to multiply both sides of the equation by 2

-14=z+2

Now you move the variable to the left side and change within it’s own sign

-z-14=2

Into

-z=2+14

Now you then add the numbers

-z=16

The last part you do is change the sign on both sides in this equation

z=-16

Therefore, z=-16 is your answer in number 16.
