Given :

Three consecutive integers = x , ( x + 1 ) , ( x + 2 )

Sum = Addition = x + ( x + 1 ) + ( x + 2 )

Total = 24

According to the question :

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

=> 3x + 3 = 24

=> 3x = 24 - 3

=> 3x = 21

=> x = 21 / 3

☃️ => x = 7

⋆ x = 7

⋆ x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8

⋆ x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9

Verification :

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

● substitute the values

=> 7 + 8 + 9 = 24

=> 24 = 24

So, It's Done !!

Answer:

let the three numbers be x,x+1,x+2

since their sum is 24

=> x+x+1+x+2=24

=> 3x+3=24

=> 3x=24-3

=> 3x=21

=> x=21/3

=> x=7

=> x+1= 8

    x+2=9

therefore, the three numbers are 7,8 and 9
