SoluTion :-

Let the numbers are x, x+1 and x+2

\tt {Since\ these\ are\ consecutive\ integers}

They are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 2,3 and 4 respectively

\fbox {So x becomes 2x}\\\\\fbox {(x+1) becomes 3(x+1)}\\\\\fbox {(x+2) becomes 4(x+2)}\\

They add up to 74.

So ATQ

2x + 3(x + 1) + 4(x + 2) = 74 \\  \\ 2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74 \\  \\ 9x + 11 = 74 \\  \\ 9x = 74 - 11 \\  \\ 9x = 63 \\  \\ x =  \frac{63}{9}  \\  \\ x = 7 \\  \\

\fbox {So, Integers are 7,8,9}
