3x=27

x=9

3numbers are 9,10,11

Difference is 2

Answer 2

Let the consecutive numbers be =a,a+1,a+2

Given-their sum=33

Therfore :-a+a+1+a+2=33

3a+3=33

3a=30

a=10,a+1=11,a+2=12(these are the 3 consecutive numbers

Difference between largest and smallest integer=12-10=2

Therfore answer=2(option A)
