Mary is thinking of three consecutive integers. If the sum of the first and the last integer is 62, what are the numbers that Mary is thinking of?

Answer 1

Let x = the first consecutive integer

Let x + 1 = the second integer

Let x + 2 = the last consecutive integer

x + x + 2 = 62

2x = 60

x = 30

x + 1 = 31

x + 2 = 32
