Question

find three consecutive even numbers whose sum is 96​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive even numbers be x,x+2 and x+4

Their sum is 96

x+x+2+x+4 = 96

3x+6 = 96

3(x+2) = 96

x+2 = 96/3

x+2 = 32

x = 32-2

x = 30

»x+2 = 30 + 2 = 32

»x+4 = 30 + 4 = 34

Therefore, the three consecutive even numbers are 30,32 and 34.

Answer 2

Answer:

30, 32 & 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive even numbers be x,x+2 and x+4

Their sum is 96

x+x+2+x+4 = 96

3x+6 = 96

3(x+2) = 96

x+2 = 96/3

x+2 = 32

x = 32-2

x = 30

»x+2 = 30 + 2 = 32

»x+4 = 30 + 4 = 34

Therefore, the three consecutive even numbers are 30,32 and 34.

Hope this helps you dear :)
