3 consecutive numbers....x, x + 1 and x + 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 72 - 3
3x = 69
x = 69/3
x = 23

x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25

so ur numbers are 23,24,25 with 25 being the largest

For the polyhedron, use Euler's Formula to find the missing number.
disa [49]

If the number of the edges of the polyhedron is 14 and the vertices are 9. Then the number of the faces of the polyhedron is 7.

<h3>What is a polyhedron?</h3>

A polyhedron is a solid made composed of polygons in three dimensions. It has vertices, flat faces, and straight edges.

We know the Euler's formula

F + V - E = 2,

where, F = number of faces, V = number of vertices, and E = number of edges

Edges: 14

Vertices: 9

F + 9 - 14 = 2

            F = 14 + 2 - 9

            F = 16 - 9

            F = 7

Then the number of the faces of the polyhedron is 7.

More about the polyhedron link is given below.

Drew wrote a four digit number less than 2000. The sum of its digit is 20. Only the digits in the ones place and hundreds place
jeka94
He wrote the number 1892, because:

The number needs to be less than 2000, with four digits. Because the first is half the last, it means that the number must be 1??2.

These two numbers add up to 3, and all together, they need to add to 20. 20-3=17. The remaining numbers need to add to 17.

The only two single digit numbers that can add to 17, are 8 and 9. Therefore, the number must either be 1892 or 1982.

The second digit needs to be even, meaning that the number has to be 1892.

I hope this helps.
