Question

Find the sum of three consecutive integers of which x is the middle integer

Answer 1

Answer:

3x  (The sum is triple times the middle integer)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the middle integer is x

=> the 3 consecutive integers are x-1,x & x+1

so the sum of the 3 integers = x-1 + x +  x+1

                                                = 3x

(The sum is triple times the middle integer)
