Question 826193: Find the largest of three consecutive even integers when six times the first integer is equal to five times the middle integer.

x - be the first integer
x+2 - be the second integer
x+4 - be the third integer / largest integer
6(x)=5(x+2)
6x=5x+10
x=10

So the largest is x+4 = 10+4 = 14
:)
How to check:
6(10)=5(10+2)
60=60
