Find three consecutive even integers

Question

Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the smallest integer and four times the second is 12 more than the third

Answer 1

x, x + 1, x + 2 are the numbers

x + 4(x + 1) = x + 2 + 12

x + 4x + 4 = x + 14

4x = 12

x = 3, x + 1 =4 , x + 2 = 5
