    n, n + 2, n + 4, n + 6 - four consecutive odd integers

    -72 - the sum

    The equation:

    n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) + (n + 6) = - 72

    n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = - 72

    4n + 12 = - 72 |subtract 12 from both sides

    4n = - 84 |divide both sides by 4

    n = - 21

    n + 2 = - 21 + 2 = - 19

    n + 4 = - 21 + 4 = - 17

    n + 6 = - 21 + 6 = - 15

    Answer: - 21, - 19, - 17, - 15.
