Question

Find three consecutive integers with the sum of 267

Answer 1

Answer:

The integers are 88, 89 and 90.

Step-by-step explanation:

The integers can be represented by x, x+1 and x+2.

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 267

3x + 3 = 267

3x = 264

x = 88

Answer 2

Answer:

88,89,90

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

x = 1st integer

x+1 = 2nd integer

x+2 = 3rd integer

Add them together and they equal 267

x+x+1+x+2 = 267

Combine like terms

3x+3 = 267

Subtract 3 from each side

3x+3-3 = 267-3

3x = 264

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 =264/3

x= 88

x+1 = 89

x+2=90
