Answer 8

Answer 9

lol let one integer x

so consecutive will be one bigger than x= x+1

and other consecutive will be one bigger than x+1=x+2

now sum of these 3 = 267

x+x+1+x+2=267

3x+3=267

3x=264

x=88

now we know that the biggest one is x+2 right? plus in the value of x

88+2=90 which is biggest
