Answer:
7,8 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first integer be x
the 2nd integer will be x+1
the 3rd integer will be x+2
so x+(x+1)+(x+2)=24
3x+3=24
3x=21
x=7
So the numbers are 7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:
Let first consecutive integer = x
then other two consecutive integers = x + 1 & x + 2
Given,
Sum of three consecutive integers = 24
so, (x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 24
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 24
3x + 3 = 24
3(x + 1) = 24
x + 1 = 24/3
x + 1 = 8
x = 8 - 1
x = 7
so, consecutive integers are :-
first = x = 7 second = x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8 third = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
I hope it helps :)
