Question

Find three consecutive even number whose sum is 96

Answer 1

Let the 3 no. S be x, x+1,x+2
X+(x+1)+(x+2)=96
3x+3=96
3x=96-3
3x=93
X=93/3
X=31
So the 3 consecutive no. S are 31,31+1,31+2
I.e.31,32,33
Hope it helps you!!!

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the three consecutive numbers be

• x,x+2,x+4

• x+x+2+x+4=96
• 3x+6=96
• 3x=96-6
• 3x=90

• x=$\frac{90}{3}$
• x=30
• x+2=32
• x+4=34

∴The three consecutive number are 30, 32, 34.

it was told to find even numbers not normal so the above one who told the answer as 31,32 and 33 is wrong for this question but the method was correct.
