Answer 1

Answer:

first integer = 5

second integer =6

third integer = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

let first integer = x

second integer= x+1

third integer = x+2

according to statement ,

x+x+1+x+2 = x+13

3x+3 = x+13

3x-x = 13-3

2x = 10

⇒ x=5

∴first integer = x=5

second integer = x+1 = 5+1=6

third integer = x+2 = 5+2=7
