    1. Three consecutive integers: x, x+1, x+2, such that:

    x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 120

    3 x + 3 = 120

    3 x = 117

    x = 117:3 = 39

    The integers are: 39,40,41.

    2.

    x + x + 2 = x + 1 + 21

    2 x - x = 22 - 2

    x = 20

    The integers are: 20,21,22.

    3. Four consecutive even integers: x, x+2, x+4, x+6

    4 (x + x + 2) = 7 (x + 6) - 8

    8 x + 8 = 7 x + 42 - 8

    8 x - 7 x = 34 - 8

    x = 26

    The integers are: 26, 28, 30, 32.
