The sum of three consecutive even integers is 36. let x represent the least consecutive integer. what equation could be used to find the least consecutive integer?

Hello,

Say to your professor theat this is a false problem of algebra but a problem of arithmetic..

I suppose the numbers to be 0,2,4 their sum is 6 and not 36.
It remaind 36-6=30 to distribute to 3==>30/3=10
So numbers are
0+10=10
2+10=12
4+10=14
And the least integer is 10.

45 this is because of the agarose
