उत्तर
Let three consecutive integer be x , (x + 1) and (x + 2)
Then according to question
x2 + (x + 1)(x + 2) = 154
x2 + x2 + 3x + 2 = 154
2x2 - 3x + 2 - 154 = 0
2x2 + 3x - 152 = 0
2x2 - 16x - 19x - 152 = 0
2x(x - 8) + 19(x - 8) = 0
(x - 8)(2x + 19) = 0
(x - 8) = 0
x = 8
Or
2x + 19 = 0
2x = -19
x = -19/2
Since, x being a positive number, so x cannot be negative.
Therefore,
Whenx = 8then other positive integer
x + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9
And
x + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10
Thus, three consecutive positive integer be 8, 9, 10.
