If we let the first integer be x, then the second integer is x+1, and the third is x+2 because they are consecutive. If the sum of them is -96, then you can make an equation.
x + x +1 +x + 2 = -96
solve for x and you've got your first integer. find the values of the other integers and determine which one is the largest.
