What three consecutive integers have a sum of 3303?

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 3303. We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 3303. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 3303

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 3303
3X + 3 = 3303

3X + 3 - 3 = 3303 - 3
3X = 3300

3X/3 = 3300/3
X = 1100

Which means that the first number is 1100, the second number is 1100 + 1 and the third number is 1100 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 3303 are 1100, 1101, and 1102.

1100 + 1101 + 1102 = 3303

We know our answer is correct because 1100 + 1101 + 1102 equals 3303 as displayed above.
