Question

the sum of 5 consecutive even integers is 70. Find the integers.

Answer 1

let x be the smallest of the 5 integers

Answer 2

that would mean x+2 is the next consecutive even integer

x+4 is the next consecutive even integer after that etc etc

Answer 3

so we have these 5 consecutive even integers

x
x+2
x+4
x+6
x+8

add them up and set them equal to 70

x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8) = 70

then solve for x and use this to find the 5 consecutive even integers
