Step-by-step explanation:
What three consecutive integers have a sum of 54?
Three Consecutive Integers
(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 54
To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:
X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 54
3X + 3 = 54
3X + 3 - 3 = 54 - 3
3X = 51
3X/3 = 51/3
X = 17
Which means that the first number is 17, the second number is 17 + 1 and the third number is 17 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 54 are 17, 18, and 19.
17 + 18 + 19 = 54
