Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let the smallest number be x. The next number would be x + 1, then the next would be x + 2, then x + 3.

The sum of these four is 1998.

Solve for x:

  • x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 1998
  • 4x + 6 = 1998
  • 4x = 1992
  • x = 498

The third number is (x + 2), so simply add 2 to 498 = 500

The third number is 500.

All 4 numbers are 498, 499, 500, and 501.
