Can I assume you’re talking about consecutive whole positive numbers?

let Y = the first number

let y + 1 = the next number

let (y + 1) + 1 = the last number

Add them all together, set them equal to 201 and solve for y.

first problem:

x + (x + 1) + (x +2) = 201

3x + 3 = 201

3x = 198

x = 66

therefore numbers are: 66, 67 and 68

second problem:

x + (x + 1) + (2x) = 201

4x + 1 = 201

4x = 200

x = 50

therefore the numbers are 50 and 51

u should try and do it yourself, but i’ll give you some clues…

for the first one, the first number is in the 60’s…

for the second one, the number that doesn’t need a double in the sum is in the fifties…

1st question: 66+67+68=201.

For the second question, it’s 50+51+100=201.
