Answer:
13 + 14 + 15 = -42
Step-by-step explanation:
(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 42
Solve X
X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 42
3X + 3 = 42
3X + 3 - 3 = 42 - 3
3X = 39
3X/3 = 39/3
X = 13
Which means that the first number is 13, the second number is 13 + 1 and the third number is 13 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 42 are 13, 14, and 15.
13 + 14 - 15 = -42
