The smallest of the three consecutive integers is 24.

<h3>How to solve algebraic word problems?</h3>

Let the 3 consecutive integers be;

x, y and z

Thus;

y = x + 1

z = x + 2

Now, we are told that their sum is equal to 4 times the largest number minus 29. Thus;

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 4(x + 2) - 29

3x + 3 = 4x + 8 - 29

4x - 3x = 3 + 21

x = 24

Thus, we can conclude that the smallest of the three consecutive integers is 24.
