Answer:

104, 105, 106

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider three consecutive integers.  If the first is x then the second is 1 more than x (or x+1) and the third is x+2

The sum of these three integers is x + x+1 + x+2 and is known to be 312, so

x + x+1 + x+2 = 312, gather like terms

3x + 3 = 312, subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 309, divide both sides by 3

x = 104, so the integers are

104, 105, 106
