Question

Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the least integer and the middle integer is 36 more than the greatest integer

Answer 1

call the three integers x, (x + 2), (x + 4)

 

x + (x + 2) = (x + 4) + 36

 

2x + 2 = x + 40

 

x + 2 = 40

 

x = 38

 

The numbers are 38, 40, and 42
