Let x be the smallest of the three integers; thus, the integers are x, x+1, x+2. From the problem, we get:

2x=(x+2)+5=x+7

2x-x=7

x=7

The sum of three consecutive even integers is fourteen less than twice the smallest of these integers. What is the smallest and greatest integers?

three consecutives numbers: a = smallest a+2 a+4 14 less = -14 than twice the smallest = 2a so... a+a+2+a+4=-14+2a 3a+6=-14+2a 3a-2a=-14-6 a=-20 answer: smallest = -20 greatest = -16


What are 3 consecutive integers such that twice the smallest is 12 more than the largest?

-- Call the three consecutive integers (x-1), x, and (x+1).-- Twice the smallest is 2(x-1) or (2x-2).-- 12 more than the largest is (x+1)+12 or (x+13).-- These are equal, so2x - 2 = x + 13Subtract 'x' from each side of the equation:x - 2 = 13Add 2 to each side:x = 15 .-- The smallest of the three numbers is (x-1) = 14.-- The three consecutive integers are 14, 15, and 16.-- Twice the smallest is 28.-- 28 is 12 more than 16.QED, man, QED !


If sum of three consecutive even integers is fourteen less than twice the smallest of these integers. What is the smallest integer?

Suppose the smallest integer is A. The next two even numbers are A+2 and A+4. Using the information supplied we can form an equation: 2A - 14 = A + A+2 + A+4 Rearranging: 2A - 14 = 3A + 6 -20 = A So the three integers are -20, -18 and -16.

Whats the answer to Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the smallest and twice the second is 20 more than the third?

Let the smallest integer be x. Since the consecutive even integers differ by 2, we havex + 2(x + 2) = (x + 4) + 203x + 4 = x + 24 (subtract x and 4 from both sides)3x - x - 4 + 4 = x - x - 4 + 242x = 20 (divide by 2 to both sides)x = 10Thus, the three consecutive even integers are 10, 12, and 14.


Find the smallest of four consecutive even integers if twice the sum of the second and third integers is equal to the sum of the first and fourth integers increased by fourteen?

Since we know that the integers are even and consecutive, we can call them x, x+2, x+4, and x+6, with x being the smallest of the four. twice the sum of the second and third can be written as 2(x+2+x+4)=4x+12 the sum of the first and fourth increased by 14 is x+x+6+14=2x+20 Then we can solve 4x+12=2x+20-->2x=8-->x=4 4


Twice the smallest of three consecutive odd integers is seven more than the largest find the integers?

Let's represent the three consecutive odd integers as ( 2n-1 ), ( 2n+1 ), and ( 2n+3 ), where ( n ) is an integer. According to the given information, twice the smallest integer ( 2(2n-1) ) is equal to seven more than the largest integer ( 2n+3 ). Setting up the equation, we have ( 4n-2 = 2n+3+7 ). Solving this equation gives us ( n = 6 ). Therefore, the three consecutive odd integers are 11, 13, and 15.
