Three consecutive integers, x, (x+1), (x+2);
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "the largest 3 consecutive integers for which the first is increased by twice the second exceeds the third by less than 25.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Exeeds by less than 25 so try 24,
\n" ); document.write( ":\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + 2(x+1) = (x+2) + 24
\n" ); document.write( "x + 2x + 2 = x + 26
\n" ); document.write( "x + 2x - x = 26 - 2
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 24
\n" ); document.write( "x = 12
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "12, 13, 14 are the integers
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "See if that is true in the given statement
\n" ); document.write( "first is increased by twice the second exceeds the third by less than 25.
\n" ); document.write( "12 + 2(13) = 14 + 24
\n" ); document.write( "12 + 26 = 38
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
