Answer:

The correct equation is 3n + 3 = 303

Correct value of n is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of three consecutive integers is 303.

Consecutive integer is next number of previous one.

Let n be smallest integer.

Next two integer: n+1, n+2

Sum of n, n+1 and n+2 is 303

Therefore,

n + n + 1 + n + 2 = 303

3n + 3 = 303

3n = 300

n = 100

Hence,  The correct equation is 3n + 3 = 303
