Answer:

The integers are 91,92,93

Explanation:

Let the numbers be x, x+1, x+2( It means they are increasing steadily since even or odd wasn't included

x + (x+1) + (x+2)=276

Collect like terms

x+x+x+1+2=276

3x+3=276

3x=276-3

3x=273

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=273/3

x=91

Since the first integer is x, the first number is 91

The second integer is x+1=91+1

= 92

The third integer is x+2=91+2

=93
