let the three consicutive integer are x,x+1,x+2

according to the question

2x+3(x+1)+4(x+2)=74

2x+3x+3+4x+8=74
9x+11=74
9x=74-11
9x =63
x=63/9
x=7

then

the first integer=7
second integer=7+1=9
third integer =7+2=9

let the three integers be x, x+1, x+2
then according to the question
 2x + 3(x +1) + 4 (x+2) = 74
2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74
9x + 11 = 74
9x = 74 - 11
9x = 63 
x = 63 ÷ 9 
x = 7 



so the first integer = 7
second integer(x+1)  = 7+1
                                  = 8
third integer(x+2) = 7+2
                            = 9
