Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

let us take three consecutive numbers be (x + 1), (x + 2) and (x + 3)

Now,

The sum of three consecutive integers is 90

i.e.,

(x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 90

x + 1 + x + 2 x + 3 = 90

3x + 6 = 90

3x = 90 - 6

3x = 84

x = 84/3

x = 28

x = 28Thus, The value of x is 28

VERIFICATION:

(x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 90

(28 + 1) + (28 + 2) + (28 + 3) = 90

28 + 1 + 28 + 2 + 28 + 3 = 90

90 = 90
