What three consecutive integers have a sum of 6363?

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 6363. 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 6363. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 6363

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 = 6363
3X + 3 = 6363

3X + 3 - 3 = 6363 - 3
3X = 6360

3X/3 = 6360/3
X = 2120

Which means that the first number is 2120, the second number is 2120 + 1 and the third number is 2120 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 6363 are 2120, 2121, and 2122.

2120 + 2121 + 2122 = 6363

We know our answer is correct because 2120 + 2121 + 2122 equals 6363 as displayed above.
