The sum of three consecutive integers is -234 find the integers

-77, -78, -79

Step-by-step explanation:

let one of the integers be x

since the integers are consecutive, the other 2 integers must be

(x+1) and (x+2)

given that sum of the integers is -234,

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = -234

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -234

3x + 3 = -234   (subtract 3 from both sides)

3x = -234-3

3x = -237  (divide both sides by 3)

x = -237 / 3

x = -79  (answer)

hence the other two numbers are

(x + 1) = -79 + 1 = -78 (answer)

and

(x+2) = -79 + 2 = -77 (answer)
