Question

anonymous · Answer

1st # = x
2nd # = x+1

What would be the third number?

anonymous · Answer

138/3 = 46

Therefore... 46 + 46 + 46 = 138

(46-1) + 46 + (46+1) = 138

45 + 46 + 47 = 138.

my answer is 45, 46 & 47?

anonymous · Answer

representation:
1 # = x
 2# = x+1
3#  = x+2

equation:
 x+(x+1)+(x+2)=138
 x+x+1+x+2    =138
 3x+3                = 138
                3x     = 138-3
                    x   = 135/3
                     x=  45

    therefor the numbers are:    45,46,47.
