anonymous · Answer

Do the exact same thing that I showed you in the previous question.

Try to understand what we're telling you to do rather than just putting in the answer that we provide.

daru i dont understand the question so im asking for help, not the answer to copy

anonymous · Answer

What I meant is that the procedure is almost the same as the previous question. ;)

Think about how I represented "two consecutive numbers" as "x" and "x+1" and think about how you could represent three consecutive numbers in this problem.

i dont know what consecutive numbers are though...

anonymous · Answer

Consecutive numbers are numbers that come after one another:

Like 1, 2, and 3. or 15, 16, and 17.
