Consecutive numbers whose sum is 438. I did x+1x+2x 3x+1=438 3x= 438 - 1 3x= 437 x= 437 divided by 3 x= 145, 146 and 147 Is it right?

so x is a number, 2x represents TWICE the size of that number were you maybe looking to do x+1 and x+2? :o for consecutive also, does the problem specify how many consecutive numbers or no? :D
