Question

The sum of three consecutive integers is 1.623

Answer 1

Answer: 540, 541, 542

Explanation:

Three consecutive integers are basically three numbers in a row. For example, 4, 5 and 6 are three consecutive integers.

Let x represent the 1st integer:

2nd integer: x + 1

3rd integer: x+2

Set them equal to 1623:

x+x+1+x+2=1623

3x+3=1623

3x=1620

x=540

Calculate the value of the integers:

1st integer = 540

2nd integer: (540) + 1 = 541

3rd integer: (540) + 2 = 542
