    The sum of four integers is 34. What is the smallest of the four integers?

    the smallest integer is 7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    from the question "The sum of four integers is 34. What is the smallest of the four integers"

    it implies, let n b the number

    now four consecutive integers will be n, n+1, n+2, n+3

    n is the smallest integer while n + 3 is the largest integer

    now, sum of the four consecutive integers will be n + (n+1) + (n+2) + (n+3)

    now back to the question.

    n + (n+1) + (n+2) + (n+3) = 34

    Open the bracket

    4n + 6 = 34

    4n = 34 - 6

    4n = 28

    divide by 4

    n = 7

    therefore the smallest integer is 7

    to check your answer

    from n + (n+1) + (n+2) + (n+3) = 34

    7 + 7+1 + 7 + 2 + 7+3=34

    34=34 ... proved
