Question

sum of three consecutive integers is 24 find the integers ​

Answer 1

Given:

• The sum of 3 consecutive integers is 24.

To find:

• The required integers ?

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Solution:

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

➜ 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 :

• x = 7
• x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8
• x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9

Answer 2

☆ Solution ☆

Given :-

• Sum of three consecutive integers is 24 .

To Find :-

• The integers.

Step-by-Step-Explaination :-

Let,

The 1st consecutive integer be x

The 2nd consecutive integer be x + 1

The 3rd consecutive integer be x + 2

According to the question,

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 24

3x + 3 = 24

3x = 24 - 3

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Thus,

First integer = x = 7.

Second integer = x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8.

Third integer = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9.

Hence,

The three consecutive integers are 7, 8 and 9.
