Question

Find three consecutive even no. whose sum is 234

Answer 1

let the numbers be x, x+2 and x+4

then

x+x+2+x+4 = 234

3x + 6 = 234


3x =234-6

3x =228

x= 228/3

x= 76

then 

the numbers are:  -

1)-   76

2)-  76 +2= 78

3)-  76+ 4 = 80

Answer 2

suppose 1st even number =2x
2nd no.=2x+2
3rd even number =2x+4

now ATQ,
2x+2x+2+2x+4=234
6x+6=234
6x=228
x=228/6
x=38

so , 1st no=2x=76
2nd no=2x+2=76+2=78
3rd no=2x+4=76+4=80

i hope this may help you!

NOTE: in the questions of equations if we are asked for even numbers tehy are always written in the form of 2x , i can even proof it because if we place any digit on the place of x it will result in an even number and if we are asked for an odd number they are written in such a way 2x-1 , 2x+1 , 2x+3. always remeber this
