Answer 1

Thanks Mert ;)

Answer 2

the integers are x x+1 and x+2 The sum of the first two is 2x+1. That sum is bigger then x+2. In fact, it is 24 bigger. If you want to write that they are equal, you must either subtract 24 from the big one which is 2x+1 or add 24 to the little one which is x+2

2x+1-24 = x+2
2x-23 = x+2
x-23=2
x=25
x+1=27
x+2=28

Answer 3

25, 26 & 27
