Choose the equation that could be used to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 75. n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 75 n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 75 n + (n + 1) + (n + 3) = 75 n + (n - 1) + (n - 3) = 75

Correct
First Option

Let the first integer be n.
Since the integers are consecutive, the integer next to n will be n+1
and so the third integer will be n+2

Therefore, the three integers are:
n , n +1, n+2

Their sum is 75. So we can write the equation as:

n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 75

This equation can be used to find n. After finding n, we can find the next two integers by finding (n+1) and (n+2)
