Let the 3 consecutive integers be $\"N-1\"$ , $\"N\"$ ,and $\"N%2B1\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"N-1%2BN%2BN%2B1=-24\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3N=-24\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"N=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then the largest is $\"N%2B1=-8%2B1=-7\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
