There are three consecutive integers.nine times the sum of the second and third numbers six hindred fiftey-one more than six times the first number. what are the integers?
SOURCE: Two consecutive even integers such that the
We'll call x the smaller integer and y the larger. So we know x+3y=22. We can rearrange this to say:
x=22-3y. Now we guess, I'll guess y=6, now we solve and get x=22-3(6)=4. 4 and 6 are two even consecutive integers! So the answer is 4 and 6.
