Answer: Let x be the smallest of the 3 consecutive integers whose sum is 108

( x ) + ( x + 1 ) + ( x + 2 ) = 108 3 x + 3 = 108 x = 105 x = 35

and the 3 integers are 35, 36, and 37

Explanation: Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, x+2, x+4. The sum is 3x+6, which is equal to 108. Thus, 3x+6=108.
