The sum of three consecutive integers is (-87). Find the three integers.
Let the smallest integer be $x$.
So the three consecutive integers are $x, x+1, x+2$.
Now, according to the problem,
$x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -87$
$3x + 3 = -87$
$3x = -87-3$
$3x = -90$
$x = \frac{-90}{3}$
$x = -30$
So the numbers are
$x = -30$
$x + 1 = -30 + 1 = -29$
$x + 2 = -30 + 2 = -28$
