Answer:

52 is the multiple of 13 out of 51 , 52, 53 numbers​.

Explanation:

Given: Sum of three consecutive integers 156

To find: Three consecutive integers .

Solution: We have given that

Let first consecutive number x ,

Second consecutive number= x+1

Third number = x+2

According to question :

Sum of three consecutive number

x + x+1 +x+2 = 156 .

Combine like term

3x+3 = 156

On subtracting by 3 both side

3x + 3 -3 = 156 - 3

3x = 153

On dividing by 3

x = 51.

X+1 = 51+1

x+1 = 52.

x +3 = 51+2 = 53.

We can see second number 52 is multiple of 13.

Therefore, 52 is the multiple of 13 out of 51 , 52, 53 numbers​.
