Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want only the middle number, then call it x

the largest of the 3 is x + 1

The smallest of the 3 is x - 1

Add

x + 1 + x - 1 + x = 183 Cancel the 1s out.

x + x + x  = 183          Combine the like terms on the left

3x = 183                     Divide by 3

x = 183/3                    Do the division

x = 61

The middle number is 61

How to solve 3(5-e)+2=10
miss Akunina [59]
<span>Simplifying 3(5 + -1e) + 2 = 10 (5 * 3 + -1e * 3) + 2 = 10 (15 + -3e) + 2 = 10 Reorder the terms: 15 + 2 + -3e = 10 Combine like terms: 15 + 2 = 17 17 + -3e = 10 Solving 17 + -3e = 10 Solving for variable 'e'. Move all terms containing e to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-17' to each side of the equation. 17 + -17 + -3e = 10 + -17 Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0 0 + -3e = 10 + -17 -3e = 10 + -17 Combine like terms: 10 + -17 = -7 -3e = -7 Divide each side by '-3'. e = 2.333333333 Simplifying e = 2.333333333</span>
