Francisco Dorsey · Answer 1

84, 85, 86

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 255

3x + 3 = 255

3x = 252

x = 252 / 3

x = 84

(x + 1) = 85

(x + 2) = 86

Uriel Morgan · Answer 2

83, 85, and 87

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the integers equal to x, x+2, and x + 4, where x is the first integer

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 255

3x + 6 = 255

x + 2 = 85

x = 83

The numebrs are 83, 85, and 87
