Algebraically, X = integer.
X + (X + 2) + (X + 4) = 24
gather like terms on left
3X + 6 = 24
subtract 6 from each side
3X = 18
so,
X = 6
------------
X + 2 = 8
X + 4 = 10
6 + 8 + 10 = 24

the answer set
3 consecutive even integers whose sum is 396 are 130, 132 and 134.
The integers are -16 and -14.
14,16.18
The integers are 6, 8 and 10.
-12, -10, -8
3 consecutive even integers whose sum is 396 are 130, 132 and 134.
No. There is no set of three consecutive even integers with a sum of 40.
The integers are -16 and -14.
10 12 14 are the consecutive even integers which add up to 36
14,16.18
The integers are 44, 46 and 48.
The integers are 6, 8 and 10.
The even integers are 22, 24 and 26.
Find three consecutive positive even integers whose sum is 123 , Answer
The integers are 99, 100 and 101. There is also a set of consecutive even integers whose sum is 300. That set is 98, 100 and 102.
The integers are -37, -36 and -35. Also, using consecutive even integers: -38, -36 and -34.
-12, -10, -8
