Answer:

France = 15, Italy = 14, Korea = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find 3 consecutive integers whose sum is 42, then the highest integer will be France's gold medal count since they won the most, the second highest will be Italy, and the lowest integer will be Korea.

let n be the first/smallest integer, since they are consecutive, the next two integers are n+1 and n+2. Summing these, we get n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 42. Solve to get n = 13, n + 1 = 14, and n + 2 = 15

What is the exponents <br>​
zmey [24]
The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.

For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.

Hope this helps
