    x = 11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Consecutive means in a row

    Let x be the first integer

    x+1 is the second

    x+2 is the third

    x+3 is the 4th

    The sum is 50

    x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 50

    Combine like terms

    4x+6 = 50

    Subtract 6 from each side

    4x+6-6 = 50-6

    4x = 44

    Divide each side by 4

    4x/4 = 44/4

    x = 11
