Three consecutive even integers are: 2x, 2x+2, and 2x+4.

I think the question says: 3(2x+4) = 2(2x) + 38

Eliminate parentheses:

6x + 12 = 4x + 38

Subtract 4x from each side:

2x + 12 = 38

Subtract 12 from each side:

2x = 26

2x+2 = 28

2x+4 = 30

=================================

Check:

Three times the greatest= 90

Twice the least = 52

90 exceeds 52 by 38 yay!
