Answer:

The answer is: The largest number is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) = (n + 4) + (n + 5) + (n + 6)

4n + 6 = 3n + 15

n = 9

Proof:

9 + 10 + 11 + 12 = 19 + 23 = 42

13 + 14 + 15 = 27 + 15 = 42

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!  :-)
