The consecutive multiples of $3$ whose sum is $51$ are:
✓
$24, 27$
B
$40, 11$
C
$20, 31$
D
$25, 26$

Answer
Correct option: A.
$24, 27$
Lets say $x$ is the multiple of $3$
Next consecutive multiple of $3$ will be $(x + 3)$
Given sum is $= 51$
$⇒ x + x + 3 = 51$
$⇒ 2x = 48$
$⇒ x = 24$
Two consecutive multiples of $3$ are $24, 27.$
