Question

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 72. What is the largest of these numbers?

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

25  Is the largest number too add up to the sum.
