SOLUTION:

Let the highest integer of the three integers = x

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = - 36

3x + 3 = - 36

3x = - 36 - 3

3x = - 39

x = - 39 / 3

x = - 13

Highest integer = x = - 13

Middle integer = x + 1 = - 12

Lowest integer = x + 2 = - 11

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

The lowest number is - 11.
The middle number is - 12.
The highest number is - 13.
