Question

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69. Find the numbers of P is the largest
number​

Answer 1

The correct answer is - 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sum of the 3 consecutive odd numbers = 69

solution:

Let’s assume the initial number - 2X+1

Let's say the second number is -‘2X+3’ and

Let's say the largest number is- ‘2X+5’.

Sum of the numbers = 69

(2X+1) + (2X+3) + (2X+5) = 69

6X+9 = 69

6X = 69–9

6X = 60

X = 60/6

X= 10

So, x value would be 10. Putting value of X in 2X+5

= 2(10)+5

=25

= 25 (Answer)
