One number be x
x+(x+1)+(x+2)=63
x+x+1+x+2=63
3x+3=63
3x=63-3
3x=60
x=60:3
x=20
smallest number = x=20
middle number = x+1= 20+1=21
largest number = x+2 =20+2= 22

How do you solve a-9/a3

Klio2033 [76]

Is it this?
$\frac{a - 9}{a3}$
If so, then
$\frac{a - 9}{a3} = 0 \\ \frac{a}{a3} - \frac{9}{a3} = 0 \\ \frac{1}{3} - \frac{9}{a3} \\ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{a3} \\ 3( \frac{1}{3} ) = 3( \frac{9}{a3} ) \\ 1 = \frac{9}{a} \\ a = 9$
