Let the 3 consecutive no b x,x+2,x+4
but x+x+2+x+4=x(x+2)/x/3
=3x+6=105
=x=99/3=33
from the 2nd statement
x(x+2)(x+4)/11(x+2)/7
=7x(x+4)/11
substitute for x=33
=7x33(33+4)/11
=231x37/11=777
ans 777

i sent 778. You said consecutive numbers, in which mine was 34, 35, 36. I don't think 33, 35 and 37 are really consecutive. My opinion. Thanks
