I'm not sure what your question is. If you mean "what are 4 consesecutive even numbers that ADD up to 372". Here are the 4 numbers that will do that:

90 + 92 + 94 + 96 =372

Find the four consecutive even whole numbers in 372

 

Number  1 (n1)=2iNumber  2 (n2)=2i+2Number  3 (n3)=2i+4Number  4 (n4)=2i+6

 

n1+n2+n3+n4=372(2i)+(2i+2)+(2i+4)+(2i+6)=37242i+2+4+6=37242i+12=372|1242i=3721242i=360|:42i=36042i=90

 

 

n1=2in1=90n2=2i+2n2=90+2n2=92n3=2i+4n3=90+4n3=94n4=2i+6n4=90+6n4=96n1+n2+n3+n4=37290+92+94+96=372

Make 'x' the lowest number:    x  + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 372        4x + 12 =372      4x=360    

x= 90     x+2 = 92      x+4= 94      x+6= 96
