Let's denote the smallest of the three consecutive numbers as "x". The second number would then be x+1, and the third number would be x+2. Since the sum of the three numbers is 156, we can set up the equation as x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 156. Simplifying the equation, we get 3x + 3 = 156. Solving for x, we find that the smallest number is x = 51.

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 156 more than their average what are these numbers?

Let the middle number of the three be n. Then the three consecutive numbers are n-1, n, n+1. Their sum is n-1 + n + n+1 = 3n Their average is 3n / 3 = n The difference between their sum and their average is 3n-n = 2n 2n = 156 => n = 78. Thus the three numbers are 77, 78, 79

Two consecutive positive integers have a product of 156 find the smallest integer?

You need to look for 2 numbers which have a product of 156 and a difference of 1. First 156 can be written as a product of it's prime factors: 156 = 22 x 3 x 13. From this you can see that 22 x 3 = 12 and hence 12 x 13 = 156.
