Question

when three consecutive even integers are added the result is zero find the integers​

Answer 1

Answer:

Three consecutive integers are −2,(−2+2) and (−2+4) i.e., −2,0 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first even integers =x  

Then next two consecutive even integers =(x+2) and (x+4)  

According to the given statement ,  

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=0  

x+x+2+x+4=0  

3x+6=0  

3x=−6  

x=  

3

−6

​  

 

We get ,  

x=−2  

Therefore , three consecutive integers are −2,(−2+2) and (−2+4) i.e., −2,0 and 2
