Answer:

89406, 89408 and 89410.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the any even integer.

So n+2 will be 2nd even integer and n+4 will be 3rd even integer.

We are told that twice the first integer added to the third is 268,222.

Twice the first integer will be 2*n.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]2n+(n+4)=268222[/tex]

[tex]2n+n+4=268222[/tex]

[tex]3n+4=268222[/tex]

Let us subtract 4 from both sides of our equation.

[tex]3n+4-4=268222-4[/tex]

[tex]3n=268218[/tex]

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 3.

[tex]\frac{3n}{3}=\frac{268218}{3}[/tex]

[tex]n=89406[/tex]

Therefore, our 1st even integer will be 89406.

2nd even integer = n+2

[tex]n+2=89406+2=89408[/tex]

3rd even integer = n+4

[tex]n+4=89406+4=89410[/tex]

Therefore, our three consecutive even integers will be 89406, 89408 and 89410.
