Is the sum of 3 consecutive whole numbers always divisible by 3. Explain?
Three consecutive whole numbers can be written as x, x + 1 and x + 2. Added together, their sum can be written as 3x + 3. Not only is that sum divisible by three, but by doing so [3(x + 1)] you can see that the sum is also equal to three times the second number.
Can 3 consecutive whole numbers be primes?
No. Any three consecutive numbers will have at least one of them which is divisible by 2, which means it cannot be prime. And since 1 is not considered a prime number, it cannot happen.
