Question

What four consecutive integers have a sum of 26?

Answer 1

x+x+1+x+2+x+3=26

4x+6=26

4x = 26-6

4x= 20

x =20/4

x=5

numbers are 5,6,7,8

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let numbers be x ,x+1,x+2,x+3

According to the question ,

x+x+1+x+2+x+3 = 26

=> 4x + 6 = 26

=> 4x = 26-6

=> 4x = 20

=> x = 20/4

=> x = 5

Now, consecutive numbers are :-

=> x = 5

=> x+1 = 5+1=6

=> x+2 = 5+2 = 7

=> x+3 = 5+3 = 8
