Let the smallest integer be x. Since the consecutive even integers differ by 2, we have

x + 2(x + 2) = (x + 4) + 20
3x + 4 = x + 24 (subtract x and 4 from both sides)
3x - x - 4 + 4 = x - x - 4 + 24
2x = 20 (divide by 2 to both sides)
x = 10

Thus, the three consecutive even integers are 10, 12, and 14.
