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
