Question

Four consecutive even integers have a sum of –156. What is the least of these integers?

Answer 1

Answer:

the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product

Answer 2

Answer:

Let us assume three consecutive numbers of series be x,x+1 and x+2

So, the sum of these consecutive numbers = x+x+1+x+2=156

⇒3x+3=156

⇒3x=156−3

⇒3x=153

⇒x=51

Three consecutive odd numbers = x,x+1 and x+2

x=51

x+1=51+1=52

x+2=51+2=53

Therefore, among the three, 51 is the multiple of 3.
