The smallest integer is 1 and middle integer is 2 and largest integer is 3

Solution:

Given that , three times the largest increased by two is equal to five times the smallest increased by three times the middle integer.

We have to find the three consecutive integers

So, let the smallest integer be n, then the next two consecutive middle and largest integers will be n + 1, n + 2 respectively

Then, by the given statement,  

Three times the largest increased by two is equal to five times the smallest increased by three times the middle integer.

Thus the smallest integer = n = 1

Middle integer = n + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2

Largest integer = n + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3

One step equation can you please give me examples you have Algebra 1book
Ivanshal [37]

Ex: solve for x

x+3=7 since I want to get x by itself i remove the three.

x+3-3=7-3 The opposite of plus 3 is minus 3, and whatever I do to one side i MUST do to the other side, so you want to subtract 3 from both sides.

x=4 so, 3 minus 3 = 0 and 7 minus 3 = 4.
