Question

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

Answer 1

consecutive integers differ by 1, so these numbers are consecutive:

n, (n-1), and (n-2).

so this could represent 6,5,4 or 100, 99, 98. The point is, they're consecutive and the biggest one is n.

If you add them, it equals 267 right? See if you can solve for n.
