Answer:

Lets call the first number x.

Then the next ODD number would be x+2.

The last would be x+4.

So x+(x+2)+(x+4)=189.

Combine all the x's and other numbers:

3x+6=189

solve for x:

(subtract 6 from both sides)---> 3x=183

(divide both sides by 3) ---> x=61

so the three numbers are 61, 63, 65.

check if it works:

61+63+65=189

THE INTEGERS ARE 61,63,65
