Question

The sum of four consecutive even integers is 1484. The greatest of them is​

Answer 1

Answer:

374

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown numbers be x, x+2, x+4, x+6

= x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 1484

Removing brackets,

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 1484

4x + 12 = 1484

4x = 1484 - 12

4x = 1472

x = 1472/4

x = 368

Therefore, the numbers are

x = 368

x + 2 = 368 + 2 = 370

x + 4 = 368 + 4 = 372

x + 6 = 368 + 6 = 374
