    Step-by-step explanation:

    3 consecutive even integers ... x, x + 2, x + 4

    50x = 46 (x + 4) - 88

    50x = 46x + 184 - 88

    50x - 46x = 184 - 88

    4x = 96

    x = 96/4

    x = 24 <== = the smallest

    x + 2 = 24 + 2 = 26 <== = the middle

    x + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28 <= = the largest
