Let
\n" ); document.write( "1st Integer = x
\n" ); document.write( "2nd Integer = x+1
\n" ); document.write( "3rd Integer = x+2
\n" ); document.write( "======================================
\n" ); document.write( "Given
\n" ); document.write( "x+(x+2)=44
\n" ); document.write( "x+x+2=44
\n" ); document.write( "2x+2=44
\n" ); document.write( "2x=44-2
\n" ); document.write( "2x=42
\n" ); document.write( "x=42/2
\n" ); document.write( "x=21
\n" ); document.write( "==========================================
\n" ); document.write( "1st Integer = x = 21
\n" ); document.write( "2nd Integer = x+1=21+1=22
\n" ); document.write( "3rd Integer = x+2=21+2=23
\n" ); document.write( "======================================
\n" ); document.write( "Check
\n" ); document.write( "21+23=44
\n" ); document.write( "44=44
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
