Let $\"+n+\"$ = the smallest integer
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+1+\"$ and $\"+n+%2B+2+\"$ are the next larger ones
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+n+%2B+1+%2B+n+%2B+2+=+-66+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3n+%2B+3+=+-66+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+1+=+-22+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+=+-23+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+1+=+-22+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n%2B+2+=+-21+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "The consecutive integers are:
\n" ); document.write( "-21, -22, and -23
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+-21+-+22+-23+=+-66+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+-66+=+-66+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "OK \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
