LET X BE THE FIRST INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "X+2, X+4, X+6 BE THE SUBSEQUENT INTEGERS.
\n" ); document.write( "X+(X+2)+(X+4)+(X+6)=340
\n" ); document.write( "4X+12=340
\n" ); document.write( "4X=340-12
\n" ); document.write( "4X=328
\n" ); document.write( "X=328/4
\n" ); document.write( "X=82 FOR TRHE SMALLEST INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "82+2=84 FOR THE NEXT INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "82+4=86 FOR THE NEXT INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "82+6=88 FOR THE LARGEST INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "82+84+86+88=340
\n" ); document.write( "340=340 \n" ); document.write( "
