a student wrote a list of six consecutive integers. If the sum of the first integer and the sixth integer is 1, which integer is the least of the six integers/

Answer 1

The 6 consecutive integers are

n (the least)

n+1

n+2

n+3

n+4

The wording of the question translates into

n + (n + 5) = 1

2n + 5 = 1

n = -2
