Question 469643
Twice the smallest just means 2 times the lowest integer(n)
12 less means you subtract 12 from the highest integer(n+2)
**Note i think you left something out of the question, Im going to assume its "12 less than 3 times the largest" since that provides the first case in which there is a valid solution**
Equation:
2n = 3(n+2) - 12
2n = 3n - 6
Subtract 3n on both sides
-n = -6
Flip signs
n = 6
Therefore the 3 consecutive integers are 6,7,8
