Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Let x be the first integer.
Then the second and third integers are x+1 and x+2, respectively.
The problem states that their sum is 324, so we can write an equation:
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 324
Simplifying and solving for x, we get:
3x + 3 = 324
3x = 321
x = 107
Therefore, the three consecutive integers are 107, 108, and 109, which is answer choice C.
