Question

the sum of three consecutive numbers is five times the difference of the middle number and 22. find the numbers.

Answer 1

The numbers you're looking for are 54, 55, and 56.

Explanation:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 5 * (x + 1 - 22)

3x + 3 = 5x - 105

3 = 2x - 105

108 = 2x

x = 54

x + 1 = 55

x + 2 = 56
