Answer 1

Answer:

Let the multiples be x+8, x+16 and x+24 According to Question:

x+8 + x+16 + x+24 = 888 3x + 48 = 888 3x = 888-48 3x = 840 x = 840/3 x = 280

Therefore,

x+8 = 280+8 → 288 x+16 = 280+16 → 296 x+24 = 280+24 → 304

Answer 2

let first multiple = x

second multiple = x + 8

third multiple = (x + 8)+8

=x +16

Gives,

sum of multiple = 888

x+(x+8)+(x+16)=888

x+x+x+8+16= 888

3x +24=888

3x=888-24

3x =864

x= 864

3

x=288

Thus,

• first multiple = x = 228
• second multiple= x +8=288+8=296
• third multiple = x +16=288+ 16=304
