Answer:
y = x(4+z)+6
y-6 = x(4+z)
x=(y-6)/(4+z)

The answer is $12,000 I think check to be sure...Sorry in advance I'm not the best at math guys...
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest of the four numbers is x.
Since the four numbers are consecutive, this means that each number is one more than the previous.
Therefore, the four numbers are:
x
x + 1
x+1 + 1 = x+2
x+2 + 1 = x+3
Now, we are given that the sum (s) of the four numbers is 2174
This means that:
s = x+x+1+x+2+x+3
s = 4x + 6
We are given that s = 2174. Substitute with s in the above equation and solve for x as follows:
2174 = 4x + 6
4x = 2174 - 6
4x = 2168
x = 2168 / 4
x = 542
Based on the above calculations, the four numbers are:
542, 543, 544 and 555
19 = 19/1 = 38/2 = 57/3 = 76/4
