Answer :-

  • The three consecutive even numbers are 80, 82 and 84.

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find :-

  • The three consecutive even numbers whose sum is 246.

Solution:

Given that,

  • The sum of three consecutive even numbers = 246

Assumption: Let us assume the three consecutive even numbers as "(x)", "(x+2)" and "(x+4)"

Also given,

  • (x) + (x+2) + (x+4) = 246

=> (x) + (x+2) + (x+4) = 246

=> x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 246

=> x + x + x + 2 + 4 = 246

=> 3x + 2 + 4 = 246

=> 3x + 6 = 246

=> 3x = 246 - 6

=> 3x = 240

=> x = 240/3

=> x = 80

Hence, The value of x is 80. Now, the numbers

are :-

The number which we assumed as "x"

=> x

=> 80

The number which we assumed as "(x+2)"

=> (x+2)

=> (80+2)

=> 82

The number which we assumed as "(x+4)"

=> (x+4)

=> (80+4)

=> 84

Therefore, The three consecutive even numbers are 80, 82 and 84.
