let the integers be x,x+2,x+4
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "5(x+x+2+x+4)=x(x+2)+66
\n" ); document.write( "5(3x+6)=x^2+2x+66
\n" ); document.write( "15x+30=x^2+2x+66
\n" ); document.write( "-15x
\n" ); document.write( "30=x^2+2x-15x+66
\n" ); document.write( "30=x^2-13x+66
\n" ); document.write( "-30
\n" ); document.write( "0=x^2-13x+36
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-9x-4x+36=0
\n" ); document.write( "x(x-9)-4(x-9)=0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-9)(x-4)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x= 9 OR 4.
\n" ); document.write( "reject 4
\n" ); document.write( "x= 9
