Answer:

  -17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smallest of the integers. Then their sum is ...

  x +(x+1) +(x+2) +(x+3) = -62

  4x +6 = -62 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  4x = -68 . . . . . . . . . .subtract 6

  x = -17 . . . . . . . divide by 4

The least of the four is -17.
