Short Answer

Expert verified

The integers are -2,-1,0.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information 

We have been given that the sum of three consecutive integers is 鈭�3.

We have to find the integers.

02

Step 2. Form the equation 

Let the first integer be x.

So, the next two consecutive integers will be (x+1),(x+2).

As per the given statement,

x+x+1+x+2=-3

03

Step 3. Solve the equation 

x+x+1+x+2=-33x+3=-33x=-3-33x=-6x=-63x=-2

Thusx+1=-1 and x+2=0.
