If the sum of 3 consecutive integers is 150, then the sum of the two smaller integers is :

A 99
B 139
C 110
D none of these

Correct Answer: 99

Let the integers be x, x + 1 and x + 2 respectively. Then,  x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 150 or,  3x + 3 = 150 or,  3x = 150 - 3 = 147 or,  x = 147/3 = 49 Then, sum of the two smaller integers = x + x + 1 = 49 + 49 + 1 = 99.
