Question

The largest number of 3 consecutive even number is ( x + 2 ) ( where 'x' is even ), the smallest even number is _____

Answer 1

Answer:

x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive even numbers have the difference of 2

so, if the largest number is x+2 then the second number will be x and

the third number will be x-2

Let's assume 'x' as 4

so the largest  number will be 6 ( x+2 = 4+2= 6)

the middle number will be four itself and the smallest number will be

2(x-2=   4-2  = 2)
