Question

the sum of 3 consecutive integers is 51 . which are they
​

Answer 1

Let the consecutive integers be (x - 1), x and (x + 1)

Then, sun = x - 1 + x + x + 1 = 3x = 51

→ x = 51/3 = 17

Hence, x - 1 = 16

x + 1 = 18

Therefore the consecutive integers are 16, 17 and 18

Answer 2

Answer:

(n)+(n+1)+(n+2)=51

Step-by-step explanation:

3n+3=51

3n=48

n=48/3

=16

the thre consecutive numbers will be 16,17,18
