Let x, x+1, x+2, x+3 be the four consecutive integers.
\n" ); document.write( "From above, we get
\n" ); document.write( "x+x+1+x+2+x+3 = x+2 + 1
\n" ); document.write( "simplify to get
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 6 = x + 3
\n" ); document.write( "subtract x to get
\n" ); document.write( " 3x + 6 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 6 to get
\n" ); document.write( " 3x = -3
\n" ); document.write( "divide to get
\n" ); document.write( " x = -1
\n" ); document.write( "So, the four integers are
\n" ); document.write( "{-1, 0, 1, 2}
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
