Answer 1

Answer:

7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+1)+(x+2)=24

3x+3=24

3x=24-3

3x=21

x=7

(x+1)=8

(x+2)=9

Answer 2

Question :

sum of 3 consecutive integer is 24 find the integers .

Answer :

$\sf\pink{Given:}$

• sum of 3 consecutive integers is 24 .

$\sf\pink{To\:find:}$

• The integers ?

Explanation :

• let the three integers be "x" , "x + 1" , "x + 1 + 1"

Reason :

They are consecutive therefore one will be added every time

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x + x + 1 + x + 1 + 1 = 24}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x + x + x + 1 + 1 + 1 = 24}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ 3x + 3 = 24}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ 3x = 24 - 3}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ 3x = 21}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x = \dfrac{21}{3}}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x = 7}$

• Therefore the integers are :

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x = 7}$

First integer is 7 .

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x + 1 = 7 + 1}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ 8}$

Second integer is 8.

$\longrightarrow\sf{ x + 1 + 1 = 7 + 1 + 1}$

$\longrightarrow\sf{ 9}$

Third integer is 9 .
