You have four consecutive integers such that 5 times the biggest is equal to 5 less than 6 times the smallest. What are the four integers?

OpenStudy (akashdeepdeb):

Let the four consecutive integers be x x+1 x+2 x+3 The biggest thus is x+3 So five times this 5(x+3) Is 5 less 6 times the smallest(x) => 5(x+3) = 6x-5 STEPS: #1. SOLVE THE EQUATION #2. Get the x value. #3 find all the consecutive integers. Understood? :)

5(x+3) = 6x-5 so that is the equation ?

OpenStudy (akashdeepdeb):
