Answer:
Option A: 17,18,19 is the right answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first integer then the next two consecutive integers will be x+1, x+2
According to the given statement, the equation will be:
[tex]x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 54[/tex]
The equation is a linear equation in one variable, we have to solve the equation to get the values of integers
[tex]x+x+1+x+2 = 54\\3x+3 = 54\\3x = 54-3\\3x = 51\\\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{51}{3}\\x = 17[/tex]
Second integer = x+1 = 17+1 = 18
Third integer = x+2 = 17+2 = 19
The three integers are: 17,18 and 19
Hence,
Option A: 17,18,19 is the right answer.
