Answer 1

Hi friend!!

Let the three consecutive integers be x,x+1,x+2

Given,

The sumof three consecutive integer is 5 more then the smallest integer

→x+x+1+x+2=x+5

3x+3=x+5

2x=2

x=1

So the required integers are 1,2,3

Answer 2

Heya !!!





Let three consecutive integer be Y , Y +1 , Y +2..





According to question,




Sum of three consecutive integer = 5 + Small integer.





Y + Y + 1 + Y + 2 = 5 + Y




3Y + 3 = 5 + Y






3Y - Y = 5-3




2Y = 2




Y = 2/2 = 1




First number = X = 1




Second number = X +1 = 1+1 = 2




And,


Third number = X + 2 = 1+2 = 3
