Question

The sum of four consecutive integers is -334. Find the integers

Answer 1

the first number is x (x ∈ Z)

=> four consecutive integers are x, x + 1, x +2, x + 3

because the sum of them = -334, we have:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = -334

⇔ 4x + 6 = -334

⇔ 4x = -334 - 6 = -340

⇔ x = -340/4

⇔ x = -85

=> 4 consecutive integers are -85; -84; -83; -82

Explanation:

Answer 2

`Their \: sum \: is -334`

`x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = -334`

`4x + 6 = -334`

`4x = -340`

`x = -85`
