Question

Sum of three consecutive integers is 24.
find the integers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

let the integers be x-1, x, x+1

given:sum of the integer is 24

(x-1)+(x)+(x+1)=24

x+x+x-1+1=24

3x=24

x=24/3

x=8

x-1=7, x+1=9

integers are 7,8,9

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2

According to question,

x+x+1+x+2= 24

3x+3=24

3x= 24-3

3x= 21

x= 21/3

x=7

Therefore the three consecutive integers are 7, (7+1) 8 and (7+2) 9
