Question

Sum of 3 consective integers is 24.Find the integers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let 1st no. be x

Step-by-step explanation:

Then 2nd no. is x+1

3rd no. is x+1+1 which is x+2

Therefore

x+x+1+x+2=24

3x+3=24

3x=21

x=7

Therefore x=7

2nd no. is x+1 i.e. 8

3rd no is x+2 i.e. 9

Answer 2

Answer:

let the 3 consicutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2

x+x+1+x+2=24

3x=24-3

3x=21

x=21

x=7

so,the consicutive integers will be 7,7+1=8 and 7+2=9
