Answer 2

The three consecutive integers are 19, 20 and 21.

Correct question:

The sum of three consecutive integers is 60. Find the numbers. [Since the sum of three consecutive odd numbers cannot be an even number.]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x, x + 1 and x + 2.

So, their sum

= x + (x + 1) + (x + 2)

= x + x + 1 + x + 2

= x + x + x + 1 + 2

= 3x + 3

According to the question, the sum of three consecutive integers is 60

⇒ 3x + 3 = 60

⇒ 3x = 60 - 3

⇒ 3x = 57

⇒ x = 19

So, the three consecutive integers are 19, (19 + 1) = 20 and (19 + 2) = 21.
