Question

If the sum of three consecutive integers is 69 find the possible value of largest integer

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let three consecutive number be x,x+1 and x+2.

x+x+2+x+3=69

3x=66

x=22

so largest number x+3=22+3=25

Answer 2

The first integer is x. The second is x+1, and the third is x+2. Added together they give 69.

x + x+1 + x+2 = 69

3x + 3 = 69 (now divide equation by 3)

x + 1 = 23

x = 22

The three integers are 22, 23. And 24
