Answer 1

Hola mate !

Here's $\</strong><strong>huge</strong><strong>\frak\pink{answer}$

Let numbers are x+2, x+4, x+6

☞ so ,

given sum = 222

x+2+x+4+x+6 = 222

3x+12 = 222

3x = 222-12

3x = 210

x= 210÷3

x= 70

so x+2 = 70+2 = 72

x+4 = 70+4 = 74

x+6 = 70+6 = 76

So , the three consecutive even numbers are 72,74,76

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the three consecutive numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4.

Given that sum of three consecutive even numbers is 222.

= > x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 222

= > 3x + 6 = 222

= > 3x = 222 - 6

= > 3x = 216

= > x = 216/3

= > x = 72.

Now,

x + 2 = 72 + 2

= 74.

x + 4 = 72 + 4

= 76.

Therefore, the consecutive even numbers are 72,74,76.
