Question

Find three consecutive numbers whose sum is 963.

smaller number=

middle number=

larger number=​

Answer 1

Therefore:

smaller number= 320

middle number= 321

larger number= 322

Explanation:

Let's call the smallest number "x". Then, according to the problem, we know that:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 963

Simplifying the left side of the equation, we get:

3x + 3 = 963

Subtracting 3 from both sides:

3x = 960

Dividing both sides by 3:

x = 320

So the smallest number is 320, the middle number is 321, and the larger number is 322.
