    The smallest integer is x. The next one is x + 1, and the greatest one is x + 2.

    The greatest of the three is twice as great as the sum of the two.

    x + 2 = 2 (x + x + 1)

    x + 2 = 2 (2x + 1)

    x + 2 = 4x + 2

    -3x = 0

    x = 0

    x + 1 = 1

    x + 2 = 2

    Answer: The integers are 0, 1, 2
