\n" ); document.write( "Let x = first integer
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = second
\n" ); document.write( "x+2 = third
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(x + x+1 + x+2)-2(x+1) = 16
\n" ); document.write( "(3x+3)-(2x+2) = 16
\n" ); document.write( "3x+3-2x-2 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "x+3-2 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15
