Answer:

Consider 3 consecutive integers: (smallest) x, x+1 and x+2 (largest)

Step-by-step explanation:

Five times the smallest means 5x

Sum of the largest and five times the smallest means x+2+5x

This sum is -244 means x+2+5x=-244

Solve this equation

x+2+5x=-244

6x+2=-244

6x=-244-2

6x=-246

x=-41

So, smallest number is -41, second is -40 and largest is -39

You're answer is -39+5(-41)=244
