Let the first number be x, the second x + 1, and the third x + 2. So,

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 60

3x + 3 = 60 subtract 3 to both sides;

3x = 57 divide by 3 to both sides;

x = 19

x + 1 = 19 + 1 = 20

x + 2 = 19 + 2 = 21

Thus the numbers are 19, 20, and 21.

How do you Multiply 3 consecutive numbers to make 60?

To find three consecutive numbers that multiply to 60, you can start by estimating the cube root of 60, which is about 3.9. The three consecutive integers around this value are 3, 4, and 5. Multiplying these together: (3 \times 4 \times 5 = 60). Thus, the three consecutive numbers are 3, 4, and 5.

Oh, what a happy little problem we have here! If we have three consecutive numbers, we can call them x, x+1, and x+2. When we add these together and set it equal to 175, we get 3x + 3 = 175. By solving this simple equation, we find that the three consecutive numbers are 58, 59, and 60.
