Three consecutive even integers: x, (x+2), (x+4)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Twice the first of three consecutive even integers minus the third equals 36.
\n" ); document.write( "Just write an equation for what it says
\n" ); document.write( "2x - (x+4) = 36
\n" ); document.write( "Remove brackets
\n" ); document.write( "2x - x - 4 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "x = 36 + 4
\n" ); document.write( "x = 40
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "40, 42, 44 are the integers
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check in the given statement:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Twice the first minus the third equals 36. Find the 3 integers.\"
