Answer :

The sum of the series of three numbers, which includes the counting number, n, the number before n, and the number after n is 3•n

What is a series?

A series of a sequence of numbers is the sum of the numbers up to a specified term.

The given parameters;

n = A counting number

Counting numbers are the natural numbers which is the set of all positive integers.

Given that n is a counting number, we have that n is a positive whole number.

Which gives;

The whole number before n = n - 1

The whole number after n = n + 1

Which gives;

The sum of n, the whole number before n, and the whole number after n is part of a series and can be written mathematically as follows;

The sum = n + n - 1 + n + 1 = 3•n -1 + 1 = 3•n
