I think I understand this now THXS ^-^

An hour of being confused... when I could've looked this up and understand in less than two minutes. Thank you.

@khanamnasrin x+(x+1)+(x+2). It should be the same. 3x+3=-114, -114 - 3=-117, 3x=-117, -117/3=-39, so x=-39. To check, -39+-38+-37=-114(Plugged it into my calculator and it is). Hope I helped! You can check my math if you want.

how would u solve this problem: the sum of three consecutive integers in -114. find the integers

THANK YOU OH MY GOSH !:)

[Agaotaku]

is ALWAYS the equation like that? I mean x+(x+1)+(x+2)?

But what about the more complicated ones like:

2 consec even integers who's product is 80 more than the smaller's sqaure.
