Consecutive Integers
■ Integers that come in counting order
■ For example 4, 5, 6 can be written as 𝑛, 𝑛 + 1, 𝑛 + 2
■ n is the first of the consecutive integers
Consecutive Odd or Even Integers
■ Odd or Even numbers in counting order
■ Skips every other number
■ Must add 2 each term
■ Consecutive Odd example: 5, 7, 9 can be written as 𝑛, 𝑛 + 2, 𝑛 + 4
■ Consecutive Even example: 12, 14, 16 can be written as 𝑛, 𝑛 + 2, 𝑛 + 4
Write an equation and solve
Find three consecutive integers with a sum of 21.
Add 𝑛, 𝑛 + 1, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 , 𝑛 + 2 to equal 21
𝑛 + 𝑛 + 1 + 𝑛 + 2 = 21
3𝑛 + 3 = 21
3𝑛 = 18
𝑛 = 6
𝑛 + 1 = 7
𝑛 = 6
𝑛 + 2 = 8
The three integers are 6, 7, and 8.
