Question

The ages of three brothers are consecutive integers with sum of 96. How old are the brother?

Answer 1

Answer:

              31, 32, and 33 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle number of three consecutive integers is the mean of the others, so it is one third of the sum of three consecutive integers

96:3 = 32  - the middle brother's age

so:

32 - 1 = 31  -  the youngest brother's age

32 + 1 = 33 - the oldest brother's age
