Question

sum of 3 consecutive integers is (-72). Find the integers

please give the answer with explanation​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x,x+1 and x+2

then,

x+x+1+x+2=(-72)

3x+3= -72

3x= -72-3

3x= -75

x= -75/3

x= -25

x+1= -25+1= -24

x+2= -25+2= -23

Verification

-23+(-24)+(-25)

-23-24-25

-72
