Find four consecutive even integer
\n" ); document.write( "x, (x+2), (x+4),(x+6)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " such that the sum of twice the first, five times the second, and four times the third divided by three times the fourth equals three.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x+%2B+5%28x%2B2%29+%2B+4%28x%2B4%29%29%2F%283%28x%2B6%29%29\" = 3
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 3(x+6)
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 5(x+2) + 4(x+4) = 3(3(x+6))
\n" ); document.write( "Distribute
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 5x + 10 + 4x + 16 = 9x + 54
\n" ); document.write( "11x + 26 = 9x + 54
\n" ); document.write( "11x - 9x = 54 - 26
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 28
\n" ); document.write( "x = 28/2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 14 is the 1st integer, 16, 18, 20 are the rest
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "See if that works
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282%2814%29%2B5%2816%29%2B4%2818%29%29%2F3%2820%29\" =
