HERE'S UR ANSWER :

☆_________________________☆

Let the three consecutive integers be :

i) x

ii) x+1

iii) x+1+1 = x+2

NOW :

(according to question)

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 51

x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 51

3x + 3 = 51

3x = 51-3

x = 48 / 3 = 16

HENCE,

first consecutive integer = 16

second consecutive integer = 16+1 = 17

third consecutive integer = 16+1+1 = 18

lLet three consecutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2

Three consecutive integers add up to 51.

x+x+1+x+2 = 51

3x+3 = 51

3(x+1) = 51

x+1 = 51/3

x+1 = 17

x = 17-1

x = 16

x = 16

x+1 = 16+1 = 17

x+2 = 16+2 = 18

The three consecutive integers are 16,17 and 18
