Correct Answer

Explanation

The sum of these four integers is 1290, so we can write the equation:
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) = 1290

Simplifying this equation, we get:
4x + 6 = 1290

Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get:
4x = 1284

Dividing both sides by 4, we get:
x = 321

So, the four consecutive integers are 321, 322, 323, and 324.
The greatest of these integers is 324.
Therefore, the answer to the question is 324.
