Three consecutive EVEN integers: 2n, 2n+2, 2n+4.

The description: , the equation now to solve.

Divide both sides by 2.

-----------in conflict with the description for "three positive even integers".

Either the description is wrong, or no solution to the problem.
According to n=-1,
the numbers are -2, 0, 2.
