The sum of three integers is 228. the second integer is 1 more than the first, and the third integer is 2 more than the first. write and equation to determine the integers

Ok so to start, your unknown numbers will ne represented as x. The equation looks like this: x+x+1+x+2=228. You have your unknown number, the number plus one, and the numner plus two. To find the answer you divide 228 by 3. Those numbers are all equal though,so you play around with them until you get 75+75+1+75+2=228
