The even integer can be represented by:

2n, 2n + 2, 2n + 4, ...

Because we need three consecutive even integers so that the largest integer be 2n, then we have:

2n - 4, 2n - 2, 2n.

In the previous sequence, 2n is the largest consecutive even integer.

We know that integers can be positive and negative.

Therefore, the three consecutive even integers which the largest is 2n are:

2n - 4, 2n - 2, 2n. inte
