Answer 2

89

Explanation:

Hello!

Consecutive integers are whole numbers that are directly after each other.

The first integer can be represented as x, and the next one as x + 1, then x + 2, and lastly x + 3. The sum of all these is equal to 362.

Solve for x

• 
  `x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 362`
• 
  `4x + 6 = 362`
• 
  `4x = 356`
• 
  `x = 89`

Since x is the smallest integer in the set, the answer is 89. The other integers would be 90, 91, and 92.
