Define x :
-----------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2.
-----------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
-----------------------------------------
Sum of these numbers is 72
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
-----------------------------------------
Solve for x :
-----------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 69
x = 23
-----------------------------------------
Find the numbers :
-----------------------------------------
1st number = x = 23
2nd number = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
3rd number = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : The numbers are 23, 24 and 25.

Answer:
$12
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming that the cost of delivery is constant irrespective of the number ordered
Let the cost of sandwich be x
First office
$33=4x+c where c is the cost of delivery
Second office
$61=8x+c
These two are simultaneous equation. Subtracting the equation of first office from the second office we obtain
4x=28
Therefore, x=28/4=7
The cost of delivery is 33-(4*7)=33-28=5
Therefore, one sandwich plus delivery costs 7+5=$12
Answer:
2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer choices to this question do not make sense since probability is a measure that is always <= 1.0
Based on the number of times a particular colored tile is drawn we can assume that at the minimum there are 6 green, 20 red, 7 blue, 8 purple and 4 black tiles
Total number of tiles = 6 + 20 + 7 + 8 + 4 = 45
Probability of drawing a green tile = 6/45 = 2/15
