Question

Sum of 3 consecutive of even number is 132 what is the third number

Answer 1

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

Gn that,

x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 132

ie 3x+6 = 132
ie x + 2 = 44
ie x =42

Therefore the third no. = x+4=42+4=46

Answer 2

Answer:

let three even consecutive no be x,(x+2),(x+4)

now,

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=132

3x+6=132

3x=132-6

3x=126

x=126/3

x=42
