Remember that a math problem can be approached in different ways. So don't judge me by my approach and plz rate high LOL. 

1st person's score: x-1 
2nd person's score: x 
3rd persons's score: x+1 

Adding all of them up, it becomes 3x=258 
Therefore x=258/3= 86 

Answer: 
1st: 85
2nd: 86
3rd: 87

Rate high and if you want some help for math, physics, biology, or history, rate high and send a message
