Sum of consecutive integers (ACT). Game on.

Sum of consecutive integers (ACT) is a grade 7 math skill aligned to Common Core standard HSA.CED.A.3: represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context. Below are 8 practice questions with answers and step-by-step explanations, drawn from the 10 sum of consecutive integers (act) problems our math games drill.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 7575. What is the largest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=75n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 75, so 3n+6=753n + 6 = 75, 3n=693n = 69, and n=23n = 23. The largest is n+4=27n + 4 = 27.

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 8484. What is the largest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=84n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 84, so 3n+6=843n + 6 = 84, 3n=783n = 78, and n=26n = 26. The largest is n+4=30n + 4 = 30.

The sum of three consecutive integers is 5151. What is the smallest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+1n + 1, and n+2n + 2. Then n+(n+1)+(n+2)=51n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 51, so 3n+3=513n + 3 = 51, 3n=483n = 48, and n=16n = 16. The smallest is 1616.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 6363. What is the largest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=63n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 63, so 3n+6=633n + 6 = 63, 3n=573n = 57, and n=19n = 19. The largest is n+4=23n + 4 = 23.

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 7878. What is the smallest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=78n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 78, so 3n+6=783n + 6 = 78, 3n=723n = 72, and n=24n = 24. The smallest is 2424.

The sum of three consecutive integers is 9090. What is the largest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+1n + 1, and n+2n + 2. Then n+(n+1)+(n+2)=90n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 90, so 3n+3=903n + 3 = 90, 3n=873n = 87, and n=29n = 29. The largest is n+2=31n + 2 = 31.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 105105. What is the middle integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=105n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 105, so 3n+6=1053n + 6 = 105, 3n=993n = 99, and n=33n = 33. The middle is n+2=35n + 2 = 35.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 9999. What is the smallest integer?

Let the integers be nn, n+2n + 2, and n+4n + 4. Then n+(n+2)+(n+4)=99n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 99, so 3n+6=993n + 6 = 99, 3n=933n = 93, and n=31n = 31. The smallest is 3131.
