Question

If the sum of three consecutive integers is 147, what are the integers?

Answer 1

`48,49,50`

Explanation:

Consider that the numbers are in an arithmetic sequence, where `a` is the first term and `d` is the common difference

In this case, the common difference is `1`

`a+a+d+a+2d=147`

`3a+3d=147`

`3a=144`

`a=48`

So numbers are `48,49,50`
