Let x, x+1 & x+2 be the three integers.
\n" ); document.write( "3(x+2)>x+x+1+47
\n" ); document.write( "3x+6>2x+48
\n" ); document.write( "3x-2x>48-6
\n" ); document.write( "x>42 ans.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "Let x=43
\n" ); document.write( "3(43+2)>42+42+1+47
\n" ); document.write( "3*45>132
\n" ); document.write( "135>132 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
