Question

Find three consecutive positive even integers whose sum is 90

Answer 1

Let, the co nsecutive even integers be 'x-2','x','x+2'.

Given, Sum of 3 consecutive integers is 90.

$(x - 2) + x + (x + 2) = 90 \\ \\ 3x = 90 \\ \\ x = {\dfrac{\cancel{90}}{\cancel{03}}} = 30 \\ \\ so \: the \: numbers \: are \: \ratio \\ \\ x = 30 \\ (x - 2) = 30 - = 28 \\ (x + 2) = 30 + 2 = 32$
