The sum of three consecutive integers is 102. Find the lowest of the three?

  • A.40
  • B.53
  • C.29
  • D.33

Answer: D

Three consecutive numbers can be taken as \((P - 1), P, (P + 1)\)
So, \((P - 1) + P + (P + 1) = 102\)
\(3P = 102 => P = 34\)
The lowest of the three \(= (P - 1) = 34 - 1 = 33\)
