    Ok so consecutive even numbers are 2 apart, like 2,4,6

    so they are

    x, x+2, x+4, x+6

    total is 144

    x+x+2+x+4+x+6=144

    4x+12=144

    minus 12 both sides

    4x=132

    divide both sides by 4

    x=33

    impossible, why is it odd

    if it was 148 or 140, then we could have a sum of four consecutive integers, but no, so answer is no solution unless you mistyped and put even instead of odd or something
