\n" ); document.write( "let $\"x\"$ be $\"1st\"$ consecutive even integer
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=x%2B2\"$ be $\"2nd\"$ consecutive even interger
\n" ); document.write( " $\"z=x%2B4\"$ be $\"3rd\"$ consecutive even integer\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%2B+y+%2B+z+%3C=+126\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B%28x%2B2%29%2B%28x%2B4%29%3C=126\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x+%2B+6+%3C=+126\"$ ........move $\"6\"$ to the right\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x+%3C=+126+-+6\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x+%3C=+120\"$ .....divide both sides by $\"3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%3C=+40\"$ ........ $\"1st\"$ consecutive even integer\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+42\"$ ....... $\"2nd\"$ consecutive even interger\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"z+=+44\"$ ......... $\"2nd\"$ consecutive even interger \n" ); document.write( "
