Answer» the three CONSECUTIVE integers add up = 39. To find :the integersSolution : ⇒ LET's find the integers.→ (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 39→ (x + x + x) + (1 + 2 + 3) = 39 → (3x + 6) = 39→ 3x + 6 = 39→ 3x = 39 - 6→ 3x = 33→ x = 33/3→ x = 11 → (x + 1) = (11 + 1)= 12 → (x + 2) = (11 + 2= 13→ (x + 3) = 11 + 3= 14Therefore, the integers are 12, 13 and 14. |
