What are the greatest possible values of these integers? Let x = the first consecutive integer x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) < 75 3x + 3 < 75 24, 25, 26 23, 24, 25 x < 24 The sum of three consecutive integers is less than 59. What are the greatest possible values of these integers? Let x = the first consecutive integer x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) < 59 3x + 3 < 59 3x < 56 x < 18.67 18, 19, 20 2. Find the greatest possible pair of integers such that one integer is 3 more than twice the other and their sum is less than 42.
