Hi satyavegi:

Please check the wording of the question, there is no solution to the problem as it is written. The only consecutive integers where one integer is sum of the others are 1,2,and 3. But this does not meet the Product = 3 * Sum condition. Please post the correct question.

Let me know if this helps :)

There can be solution to the problem if consecutive integers are considered.
But, if the integers are not consecutive the following solution can be used

Lets assume 3 integers as a,b,c

Equation 1- a*b*c = 3(a+b+c)
Equation 2- c= a+b

Replacing c in equation 1

a*b(a+b)=3*2(a+b)
We can cancel out a+b as it will be a non-zero value

we get a*b = 6
Possible values of a and b - 2,3 or 6,1

hence c = 5 or 7

X = a*b*c = 30 or 42

Adding both 30+42= 72

Hence the solution is B
