Question

The sum of 4 consecutive integers is -18. What is the greatest of these integers?

Answer 1

Let x,x+1, x+2, x+3 are four consecutive integers.

Now, according to the question

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)= -18

=> 4x+6= -18

=> 4x= -24

=> x= -6

so, four consecutive integers are -6,-5, -4 ,-3.

Among these -3 is greatest.

so, the required answer is -3.
