Do it with solution

Answer 1

Answer :

Sum of the three consecutive even number is 36.

Let,

the numbers be x , x+2, x+4

Now,

x+(x+2)(x+4)

3x+6=36

3x=36-6

3x=30

x=10

Hence numbers are,

x=10

x+2=10+2=12

x+4=10+4=14

The three consecutive even numbers are 10, 12 and 14.

Answer 2

Answer:

numbers are 11,12,13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x−1,x,x+1

The sum of 3 numbers is 36

⟹x−1+x+x+1=36

3x=36

x=12

So the numbers are 11,12,13
