x, x+2, x+4, x+6 - four consecutive even integers


x+x+2+x+4+x+6=244 \\ 4x+12=244 \\ 4x=244-12 \\ 4x=232 \\ x=(232)/(4) \\ x=58 \Leftarrow \hbox{the first integer} \\ \\ \hbox{the second integer: } x+2=58+2=60 \\ \\ \hbox{the third integer: } x+4=58+4=62 \\ \\ \hbox{the fourth integer: } x+6=58+6=64

The integers are 58, 60, 62, 64.
