consecutive number are -15 , -16 and -17 .

Answer 2

Answer:

-17

-16

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 1st number be x

Let the 2nd number be x + 1

Let the 3rd number be x + 2

Their sum is -54

• x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -54
• 3x + 3 = -54
• 3x = -54 - 3
• 3x = -51
• x = -51/3
• x = -17

The numbers are :

• x = -17
• x + 1 = -16
• x + 2 = -15
