\

Find three consecutive integers with a sum of $\"\"$ .

\

Write an equation.

\

Let $\"\"$ is the least integer, then the next two consecutive integers are $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

\

Sum of the three consecutive integers equal $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ .

\

The equation is $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Solve the equation.

\

$\"\"$ (Original equation)

\

$\"\"$ (Simplify)

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract $\"\"$ from each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Divide each side by $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Cancel common terms)

\

Therefore, the consecutive integers $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ are $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Three consecutive integers are $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .
