Question

word problem anyone?

Answer 1

The sum of three consecutive integers is 267. What is the largest integer?

Answer 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 267
3x + 3 = 267

3(x + 1) = 267
x + 1 = 267/3

Answer 3

Keep solving

Answer 4

\[\begin{align}
n+(n+1)+(n+2)=267 & \Rightarrow 3n+3=267 \\
& \Rightarrow 3n = 264 \\
& \Rightarrow n=88
\end{align}\]
But n is not the answer. It is only the smallest of the three numbers. I'm sure you can figure out the largest.\[\textrm{Check}~\href{ http://pastebin.com/feb19kWn }{\textrm{the answer}}~\textrm{when you think you've got it.}\]

Answer 5
