Let the three consecutive equals:
x, x+1, x+2
sum:
x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 36
3x + 3 = 36
x+1 = 36/3
x+1 = 12
x=12-1
x=11

Here's what I found on google about the distributive property-
To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
Now for the math-
3(x+5)
distribute the numbers- 3(x)+3(5)
solve- 3*5=15
3x+15
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6.78x - 5.2 = 4.33x + 2.15
6.78x - 4.33x = 5.2 + 2.15
2.45x = 7.35
x = 7.35/2.45
x = 3
Thus, The value of x is 3
