A quadrilateral had a perimeter of 60 cm. The length of its' [sic] sides are consecutive even integers. What are the lengths of each side?

s = shortest side's length
---
s + s+2 + s+4 + s+6 = 60
4s + 12 = 60
s = 12 cm

I've never seen its' before.
it's for possessive is a frequently seen mistake, but its' is a new one.
