let the first integer be 'x'
since integers are consecutive , other two integers = x+1 , x+2
Let the sum of integers be y
X + X+1 + X+2 = y
It is given that sum of integers is 5 more than frst integer.
sum of integers = x+5 = y
x + x+1 + x+2 = x+5
3x + 3 = x+5
2x = 2
x=1
smallest integer = 2
second integer = 2+1 = 3
third integer = 2+2 = 4
Integers are 2,3,4
