    The three consecutive integers are 4, 5, 6.

    5 * 6 = 30

    I factored 30 to look for the two larger integers. 1 x 30; 2 x 15; 3 x 10; 5 x 6.

    I found 5 and 6, and because the problem states that 30 is the product of the 2 larger integer, then the 3rd integer is 4.

    Answer=4,5,6

    First, lets look at the factor pairs of 30

    Factor Pairs of 30: 1&30, 2&15, 3&10, 5&6

    Of the factor pairs of 30, only 5&6 are consecutive integers. So 5&6 are the numbers we are looking for.

    5&6 are the second and third consecutive integers we're looking for ...

    ?,5,6

    Next, we have to find the first consecutive integer. 5-1=4. 4 is the first consecutive integer.

    4,5,6
