Let the consecutive integers be x, x+1 and x+2.
According to the question,
x+(x+1)+(x+2)=51
x+x+1+x+2=51
3x+3=51
3x=51-3
3x=48
X=48/3
x=16
Hence, x+1=17 and x+2=18
Answer- the consecutive integers are 16,17and18.

lLet three consecutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2
Three consecutive integers add up to 51.
x+x+1+x+2 = 51
3x+3 = 51
3(x+1) = 51
x+1 = 51/3
x+1 = 17
x = 17-1
x = 16
x = 16
x+1 = 16+1 = 17
x+2 = 16+2 = 18
The three consecutive integers are 16,17 and 18
