Question

The sum of four consecutive even integers is $92$. Find the largest number.

• A. $20$
• B. $22$
• C. $24$
• D. $26$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $26$

Let four consecutive even numbers be:
$x,x+2,x+4,x+6$

According to the question,

$x+x+2+x+4+x+6=92$

$⟹4x+12=92$

$x=\frac{80}{4}=20$

$\therefore$ the largest number among them is $x+6$ = $20+6$ = $26$
