The sum of three consecutive integers can be written as n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 3n + 3

If the sum is 24, we need to solve the equation 3n + 3 = 24;

=> 3n = 21;

=> n = 7

The greatest of the three numbers is therefore 7 + 2 = 9

Amount

= Rs.(25000x(1+12/100)³

= Rs.(25000x28/25x28/25x28/25)

= Rs. 35123.20.

C.I = Rs(35123.20 -25000)

= Rs.10123.20
