Answer: The integers are 36, 38, 40, and 42

Step-by-step explanation:

156/2=78

Find even integers by dividing that by two. 39.

So the two middle integers are 38 and 40.

You can go from there.

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)=156
4x+6=156
4x=150
x=37.5 (not an integer)
If x=37 you get 37+38+39+40=154 and if x=38 you get 38+39+40+41=158[/tex]
