1. Step-by-step explanation:

   let 1st integer = x

   then 2nd integer = x+1

   then 3rd integer = x+2

   A.T.Q

   x + x+1 + x+2 = 45

   3x + 3 = 45

   3x = 45-3

   3x = 42

   x = 42/3

   x = 14

   1st integer = x

   = 14

   2nd integer = x+1 = 14 +1

   = 15

   3rd integer = x+2 = 14+2

   = 16

2. Answer:

   The the consecutive integers are 14,15, and 16

   Step-by-step explanation:

   Let the no.s be x,x+1 and x+2

   Therefore,according to the given condition,

   x+x+1+x+2=45

   3x+3=45

   3x=42

   x=14

   Therefore,

   First integer = x =14

   Second Integer = x+1 =15

   Third Integer = x+2 = 16

   The the consecutive integers are 14,15, and 16

   Hope it helps
