Step-by-step explanation:

let a be the first term

second term = a+1

third term =a+2

sum =0

a+a+1+a+2 =0

3a +3 = 0

a+1 =0

a = -1

therefore integer are

a = -1

a+1 = o

a+2 = 1

hope so helpful and correct !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

let  \: first \: integer \:  = x \\<br />second \: integer \:  = x + 2 \\ <br />third \: integer \:  = x + 4 \\ <br />according \: to \: question \:  \\ <br />x + x + 2 + x + 4  = 0 \\ <br />3x + 6 = 0 \\ <br />3x =  - 6 \\ <br />x =  \frac{ - 6}{3} \\ <br />x =  - 2 \\ <br />so \: first \: no. \:  =  - 2 \\ <br />second \: no \:  =  - 2 + 2 = 0 \\ <br />third \: no. \:  =  - 2 + 4 = 2
