Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle number of three consecutive integers is thhe mean of the others, so it is one third of the sum of three consecutive integers

267:3 = <u>89 </u> - the middle number

so:

89 - 1 = 88 - the smallest number

89 + 1 =<u> 90</u> - the largest integer

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

$\frac{4^2}{2^2} = 4\\\\(8-4)*4=4^2\\\\2^2 + 2^2 = 8$

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

$\boxed{\text{Simplifying each expression:}}\\\\\frac{4^2}{2^2}\\---------\\\\\\rightarrow \frac{16}{4}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{4}\\\\ \boxed{\frac{4^2}{2^2}=4}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$(8-4) * 4\\-----------\\\rightarrow (4)*4\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{16}\\\\\text{We can also tell...}\\\\4^2 = 4 * 4 = \boxed{16}\\\\\text{So...}\\\\\boxed{(8-4)*4 = 4^2}$
