Let the first integer be x
second be x + 1
third be x + 2
▪ Sum is 51
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 51
3x + 3 = 51
3x = 51 -3
3x = 48
x = 16
then ,
the numbers are x , x + 1 , x + 2
that is :- 16 , 17 and 18
second be x + 1
third be x + 2
▪ Sum is 51
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 51
3x + 3 = 51
3x = 51 -3
3x = 48
x = 16
then ,
the numbers are x , x + 1 , x + 2
that is :- 16 , 17 and 18
