Question 640282: The lengths of the sides of a four-sided field are given by consecutive integers, each indicating a number of meters. If the perimeter of the field is 66 meters, find the lengths of the sides.

let the sides be x,x+1,x+2,x+3
so the perimeter is x+x+1+x+2+x+3=4x+6=66
or x=(66-6)/4=15
so the sides are 15,16,17,18 ans
