Find three consecutive integers such that twice the greatest interger is 2 less then 3 times the least integer
***
let x= least consecutive integer
x+1=2nd consecutive integer
x+2=greatest consecutive integer
..
x+2=3x-2
2x=4
x=2
x+2=4
least consecutive integer=2
2nd consecutive integer=3
greatest consecutive integer=4
