Answer:
a) 56 --- (27, 28, 29)
Explanation:
Forming the equation,
→ x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 2x + 30
Now the value of x will be,
→ x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 2x + 30
→ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 2x + 30
→ 3x - 2x = 30 - 3
→ [ x = 27 ]
The last integer will be,
→ x + 2
→ 27 + 2 = 29
Sum of first and last integer is,
→ x + (x + 2)
→ 27 + (27 + 2)
→ 27 + 29 = 56
Hence, required answer is 56.
