Answer:
Consecutive odd integers are separated by 2. The 3 consecutive odd integers are
n
n + 2
(n + 2) + 2 = n + 4
Given:
n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 51
3n + 6 = 51
n = (51 - 6)/3 = 15
n + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
n + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19

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
