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!
36.1,42,42.35,40.08,40,42.67
That will happen if you have 5 integers.
You need 5.
The following is an example of consecutive integer problems.Example 1: Consecutive Integer ProblemThe sum of the least and greatest of 3 consecutive integers is 60. What are the values of the 3 integers?Solution:Step 1: Assign variables : Let x = least integer x+ 1 = middle integer x + 2 = greatest integerTranslate sentence into an equation.Sentence: The sum of the least and greatest is 60.Rewrite sentence: x + (x + 2) = 60Step 2: Solve the equationCombine like terms 2x + 2 = 60Isolate variable x2x =58Step 3: Check your answer 29 + 29 + 2 = 60The question wants all the 3 consecutive numbers: 29, 30 and 31Answer: The 3 consecutive numbers are 29, 30 and 31.pato c napano

-13, -15 and -17
36.1,42,42.35,40.08,40,42.67
-4, -2, 0, and 2 are the four consecutive even integers. When you add them up they equal -4.
25, 26 and 27.
That will happen if you have 5 integers.
17 , 19 , 21 and 23 are the odd integers whose sum is 80 and the least integer is 17
You need 5.
The LCM of consecutive integers is their product. Consecutive integers will not both be multiples of seven.
