If you divide 537 in to 12 groups. each group would have 44 cookies and you would have 9 left.
Answer:
-21. -19.-17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the smallest
x+2 next smallest
x+4 be the largest
4*(x) = 18+6(x+4)
Distribute
4x = 18+6x+24
Combine like terms
4x = 42+6x
Subtract 6x from each side
-2x = 42
Divide by -2
-2x/-2 = 42/-2
x = -21
x+2 = -19
x+4 = -17
