Answer:
56, 60, 64
Step-by-step explanation:
The middle of the three numbers is their average: 180/3 = 60. The other two will be 4 more or less than this.
The numbers of interest are 56, 60, 64.

<em>Additional comment</em>
For "consecutive integer" problems, it is often useful to work with the average of the numbers. The average will be the middle number of an odd number of numbers (as here), or will be halfway between the two middle numbers if their number is even.
Even if you bother to write equations, it can work to do that in terms of the average value (middle number): (x -4) +(x) +(x +4) = 180 in this case.

I believe your answer is:
"Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12."

Here’s why:
⸻⸻⸻⸻
- To solve for 'x', we would have to use inverse operations.
- We would first have to add four to both sides to undo the negative four. Addition is the opposite of subtraction.
- We would then divide by 2 to isolate 'x'. Division is the opposite of multiplication.
