Three consecutive odd numbers are such that if you subtract the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76. find these numbers

The three consecutive odd numbers such that  the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76 are 19,21 and 23.

Given-

Let x be the number.

As these number are consecutive odd numbers. thus we can write them as,

and so on....

Now in the question we have given that if we subtract the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76. Thus,

Divide both side by 4.

The value of x is 9. therefore the value of the numbers are,

Hence the three consecutive odd numbers such that  the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76 are 19,21 and 23.

17, 19, 21 ✔️are the three consecutive odd numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n an integer number

Three consecutive odd numbers can be expressed as:

(2·n − 1) , (2·n − 1) + 2 , (2·n − 1) + 4

(2·n − 1) , (2·n + 1) , (2·n + 3)

The product of the greater two is: (2·n + 1) x (2·n + 3)

The product of the smaller two is: (2·n − 1) x (2·n + 1)

If we substract the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76.

We can express this:

(2·n + 1) x (2·n + 3) - (2·n - 1) x (2·n + 1) = 76

4n² + 6n + 2n + 3 - [4n² + 2n - 2n - 1] = 76

4n² + 8n + 3 - 4n² - 2n + 2n + 1 = 76

8n + 4 = 76

8n = 76 - 4 = 72

n = 72/8 = 9

Now we can substitute the calculated value for n, and the numbers are:

(2·n − 1) , (2·n + 1) , (2·n + 3)

(2·9 − 1) = 17

(2·9 + 1) = 19

(2·9 + 3) = 21

17, 19, 21 ✔️are the three consecutive odd numbers.

Check

If we substract the product of the smaller two from the product of the greater two, the result will be 76:

21x19 - 17x19 = 19(21 - 17) = 19 x 4 = 76✔️ checked!
