3 consecutive integers can be defined as:
\n" ); document.write( "x
\n" ); document.write( "x+1
\n" ); document.write( "x+2
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x + x+1 = x+3 + 24
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 1 = x + 27
\n" ); document.write( "x = 26
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The 3 consecutive integers are 26, 27, and 28.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Check this answer.
\n" ); document.write( "26+27=52
\n" ); document.write( "52-24=28
\n" ); document.write( "Correct.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done. \n" ); document.write( "
