What three consecutive integers have a sum of 5202?

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 5202. 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 5202. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 5202

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 = 5202
3X + 3 = 5202

3X + 3 - 3 = 5202 - 3
3X = 5199

3X/3 = 5199/3
X = 1733

Which means that the first number is 1733, the second number is 1733 + 1 and the third number is 1733 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 5202 are 1733, 1734, and 1735.

1733 + 1734 + 1735 = 5202

We know our answer is correct because 1733 + 1734 + 1735 equals 5202 as displayed above.
