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
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
