good morning

HERE IS UR ANSWER :

let the three consecutive integers be x ,(x + 1) and (X + 2 ).

now according to the question ,

x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 61

=> 3x +1+2 =61

=> 3x+3=61

=> 3x=61-3

=> 3x = 58

=> x= 58/3

=> x= 19.3

so, x= 19.3

x+1 = 19.3+1 = 19.4

x+2 = 19.3 +2 = 19.5

hope it helps ...

Let the first integer be x

Let the second integer be x+ 1

And let third integer be x +2

According to question

x + x + 1 +x + 2= 61

3x + 3= 61

3x = 61 - 3

3x = 58

×= 58 / 3

\mathcal</strong><strong>{\pink{\fbox{\</strong><strong>b</strong><strong>l</strong><strong>a</strong><strong>c</strong><strong>k</strong><strong>{</strong><strong>x</strong><strong> </strong><strong>=</strong><strong> </strong><strong>1</strong><strong>9</strong><strong>.</strong><strong>3</strong><strong> </strong><strong>}}}}}}

So

I st no. = 19.3

2 nd no. = x + 1 = 19.3+1=20.3

3 rd no. = x +2 = 19.3 + 2= 21.3
