Call the numbers 'x', 'x+1', and 'x+2'.
3x = (x+1) + (x+2) + 8
3x = x + 1 + x + 2 + 8
3x = 2x + 11
Subtract 2x from each side:
x = 11
The numbers are 11, 12, and 13.
===========================
Check:
3(11) ?=? (12 + 13) + 8
33 = 25 + 8
33 = 33
yay !
The numbers 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers. Are there other pairs of prime numbers which are consecutive numbers?
38 and 39 because they are next to each other and consecutive means numbers next to each other that then makes 77.
Prime number next to any prime number is called consecutive prime number. Eg:- 2,3,5,7 are prime numbers
Prime numbers that are next to each other on the list of prime numbers.
2, 3, 4 and 5.
The numbers 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers. Are there other pairs of prime numbers which are consecutive numbers?
Two odd numbers are said to be consecutive if there are no other odd numbers in between. This happens when the first number is odd, and the second number is two more than the first number.
No other prime numbers are consecutive because there aren't any other even prime numbers.
Consecutive is a series of numbers or events which occur directly after each other. For example 1,2,3,4, and 5 are all consecutive numbers.
Consecutive numbers are numbers which are next to each other, such as 1, 2, and 3, or 15 and 16.
Consecutive whole numbers have no other whole numbers between them.
Two things are consecutive if one follows the other directly. When our concern is the natural numbers, consecutive numbers are next to each other in the number line. The sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... , n is the list of the first n consecutive numbers. If there is any 'gap' in the sequence it is non-consecutive: 2, 3, 4, 5 is a list of 4 consecutive numbers, whilst 3, 5, 7, 9 isn't (even though they are still in order). :)
Consecutive
There is just one group: 2 and 3. No other primes are consecutive.
38 and 39 because they are next to each other and consecutive means numbers next to each other that then makes 77.
Prime number next to any prime number is called consecutive prime number. Eg:- 2,3,5,7 are prime numbers
There are no two consecutive whole numbers that sum to 142.With two consecutive whole numbers, one is even and the other odd, and their sum will be odd, but 142 is even.Two consecutive even numbers that sum to 142 are 70 and 72.
