The integers are 2,3,4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one integer be =

Since, the integers are consecutive, so they will increase by one.

So, 2nd integer will be = x+1

3rd integer will be = x+1+1=x+2

It is given that the 3 integers add up to 9.

So, we have the sum equation as:

x+x+1+x+2=9

Solving for

Combining like terms.

3x+3=9

Subtracting both sides by 3.

3x+3-3=9-3

3x=6

Dividing both sides by 3.

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{6}{3}$

x=2

∴ 1st integer =

2nd integer = 2+1 = 3

3rd integer = 2+2 = 4
