Let $\"n\"$ , $\"+n+%2B+1+\"$ , and $\"+n+%2B+2+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "be the consecutive integers
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+n+%2B+1+=+n+%2B+2+%2B+24+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+2n+%2B+1+=+n+%2B+26+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+=+26+-+1+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+=+25+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+1+=+26+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+2+=+27+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The integers are 25, 26, and 27
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+25+%2B+26+=+27+%2B+24+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+51+=+51+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "OK \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
