Out of six consecutive natural numbers, if the sum of first three is 27, what is the sum of the other three ?
-
- 36
- 35
- 25
- 24
Correct Option: A
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 27
3x + 3 = 27
3x = 24
x = 8
∴ Three consecutive no's whose sum is 27 are 8, 9,10. Hence, next 3 consecutive no's having 36 as sum are 11, 12 and 13
