There is no set of three consecutive integers whose sum is 71.

The numbers are 71, 72 and 73.
In order to do any consecutive integer problem, you should think of the numbers as x's. Here's what I did to solve this problem (and what you can do to solve future problems): (x) + (x +1) + (x +2) + (x + 3) = 290 4x + 6 = 290 4x = 284 x = 71, therefore the four numbers are 71, 72 (71 + 1), 73 (71 + 2), and 74 (71 + 3).
71 + 72 + 73 = 216
They are 8 and 9
* 71 * 73 * 75

The equation would be 35+36=71.

The integers are 67, 69 and 71.
The numbers are 69, 70, and 71.

71+72=143
219/3 = 73 so the three are 73-2 = 71, 73 and 73+2 = 75.

Let the first integer be x. then x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) = 290 4x + 6 = 290 4x = 284 x = 71 so the nanswer is 71+72+73+74 = 290
