Q1) Three consecutive integers are as such when they are taken in increasing order andmultiplied by 2, 3, and 4 respectively, they add up to 56. Find these numbers.​

Answer»

Answer:

LET the THREE consecutive INTEGERS be x, x+1, x+2 in increasing order

Multiply 2,3,4 respectively

2(x)+3(x+1)+4(x+2)

This aad up to 74

2(x)+3(x+1)+4(x+2)=74

2x+3x+3+4x+8=74

9x+11=74

9x=74-11=63

X=63÷9=7

Therefore the three consecutive integers are 7,8,9
