Question

5. Write and solve a linear equation.

Find three consecutive odd integers whose sum is

369,

Answer 1

Explanation:

let the three consecutive integer be

x , x+| , x+2

so according to question

x+x+|+x+2= 369

3x+3 = 369

3x = 366

x= |22

so the three consecutive integers are

x= |22

x+| = |22+| =|23

x +2 = |22+2= |24

so |22, |23, |24 are the three consecutive integer.
