Hii dear here is your answer

Let's call the 1st integer x. The second integer is therefore x+1 and the third integer is x+2 (this is because they are consecutive integers). These three integers sum up to 51; therefore set up the following equation and solve:

x+(x+1)+(x+2)=51

3x+3=51

3x=48

x=16

Therefore, the first integer is 16 and the next two integers are 17 and 18. The largest one is 18 and this is the answer.

Hope it's help u

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
