We know, every even number is of the form 2n.
So, let the first number be 2n.
Therefore, the second number will be 2n + 2.
Similarly, the third number will be 2n + 4.
Adding all these up and equating them to 96, we get:
2n + 2n + 2 + 2n + 4 = 96
6n + 6 = 96
6n = 90
n = 90/6 = 15
Therefore, the first number = 2n = 2(15) = 30
Second number = 2n + 2 = 2(15) + 2 = 32
Third number = 2n + 4 = 2(15) + 4 = 34
