Given:
- The sum of three consecutive integers is 5 more than the smallest of the integers.
To find:
- The integers
Solution:
❐ Let the three consecutive integers be a, (a + 1) & (a + 2).
ATQ,
➯ a + a + 1 + a + 2 = a + 5
➯ 3a + 3 = a + 5
➯ 3a - a = 5 - 3
➯ 2a = 2
➯ a = 2/2
➯ a = 1
Hence,
- First Consecutive integer = a = 1
- Second Consecutive integer = (a + 1) = 2
- Third Consecutive integer = (a + 2) = 3
