Name three consecutive positive even integers, A, B, and C.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=2N\" 2N makes the integer even
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=2N%2B2\" Next even integer after 2N
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=2N%2B4\" Next even integer after 2N+2
\n" ); document.write( "\"N%3E0\" This makes the integers positive
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2AC=60\" The product of first and third integer.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2N%282N%2B4%29=60\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4N%5E2%2B8N-60=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"N%5E2%2B2N-15=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28N%2B5%29%28N-3%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "N+5=0
\n" ); document.write( "N=-5, not allowed since N>0, from above.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "N-3=0
\n" ); document.write( "N=3
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=2N=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=2N%2B2=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=2N%2B4=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "The three integers are then 6, 8, and 10.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
