3 0
Consecutive integers area 1 apart
they are
x,x+1,x+2
sum is
x+x+1+x+2=87
3x+3=87
minus 3 both sides
3x=84
divide both sides by 3
x=28
x+1=29
x+2=30

the smallest number is 28

colin has an ice cube tray with 12 identical compartments. Each compartment is a prism that is 4 cm. long, 3 cm. wide, and 3 cm.
a_sh-v [17]
Volume = length x width x height
V = 4 x 3 x 3
4 x 3 = 12
V = 12 x 3
V = 36 cubic cm.
1 cubic cm. = 1 ml.
36 cubic cm. x 12 compartments = 432 cubic cm.
432 cubic cm. = 432 cubic ml.
