Answer:
13, 14, 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Three consecutive integers have a sum of 42 means which 3 numbers in a row add up to 42
We can call the lowest integer x,
the next integer x+1 (since our integers need to be even)
the third integer x+2
algebraic equation: 42 = x + (x+1) + (x+2).
Combine like terms on the right side,
42 = 3x + 3
Subtract 3 from each side
39 = 3x
Divide each side by 3
x=13, which is our lowest integer.
The next two integers we find with 13 + 1 =.14 and 13 + 2 = 15
13 + 14 + 15 = 42.
