Question

If the sum of three consecutive numbers is 2022, what is their first number

Answer 1

first number: 673

second number: 674

third number: 675

Explanation:

so, you add

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 3x + 3.

3x + 3 = 2019

subtract 3 from both sides, to cancel out the opposite. you then get 2019. so then you divide 2019 by 3 to then get 673.
