Answer 2

Answer:

both odd and even no.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 3consecutive positive even no. be x, (x+2), (x+4)

ATQ,

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=144

x+x+2+x+4=144

3x+6=144

3x=144-6

3x= 138

x=138/3

x= 46

so, the 2nd no. will be (x+2) that is 46+2= 48

factors of 48= 2×2×2×2×3

then the 2nd no. is divisible by both odd and even no.
