Somebody please help me with this question? The sum of three consecutive even integers is –114. What is the least of these numbers?

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well let the 1st integer be x the next even is x + 2 the next even is x + 4 so the equation for the sum of 3 consecutive even integers is x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -114 which simplifies to 3x + 6 = -114 now solve for x then you'll be able to find the 3 integers
