Let 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.

Hope it helps

take. integers as = x
first integers =x
second integers = x+1
third integer = x +3

A.T.Q
51 = x + x+1 + x +2
51 = 3x +3
48 = 3x
16 = x
there fore
first integer = x= 16
second integer = x +1 = 16+1 =17
third integer = x +2 =16+2 =18

I hope u vote it ...
