Answer:

The largest consecutive integer is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n, n +1, n+2, and n+3 are the  four consecutive integers

The sum of four consecutive integers is 18

n + n + 1 + n + 2 + n + 3 = 18

4n + 6 = 18

4n = 12

n = 3

The sum of four consecutive integers: 3, 4 , 5 , 6

Answer:

The largest consecutive integer is 6

The sum of 3 consecutive integers can be represented as

X → <em>first integer</em>

X + 1 → <em>second integer</em>

X + 2 → <em>third integer</em>

X + 3 → <em>fourth integer</em>

<em />

Since the sum of our three consecutive integers is 18, our equation will read...

X + X + 1 + X + 2 + X + 3 = 18

If we simplify on the left, our equation will read

<h2>4x + 6 = 18</h2><h2>       -6    -6    ← subtract 6 on both sides</h2><h2 /><h2>       4x = 12</h2><h2>        X = 3</h2>

X + 3 = largest integer

3 = 3 = 6

Therefore, the largest integer is 6.
