the smallest integer will be x

2nd smallest will be x+2

largest will be x+4

therefore

2x+2-33=x

2x+2=x+33

2x=x+33-2

2x-x=33-2

x=31

the numbers will be 31,33 and 35

lets check whether it is correct

2x+2-33=x

31*2+2-33=31

62+2-33=31

64-33=31

31=31

therefore the answer 31,33 and 35 is correct
