Answer:

Smallest integer: 20

Middle integer: 22

Largest integer: 24

Explanation:

Denote the smallest integer as "x"; hence the next integer will be "x + 2", and the third will be "x + 4".

Using the information, set up an equation:

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 66

Simplify

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 66

3x + 6 = 66

Inverse operations

3x + 6 = 66

-6 -6

3x = 60

/3 /3

x = 20

Smallest integer: 20

Middle integer: 22

Largest integer: 24
