Question

The sum of 3 consecutive even numbers is 132.
What is the third number in this sequence?
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let, the first number be x

second number =x+1

third number = x+1+1

a/q

x + x+1+ x+1+1= 132

3x +3 =132

3x = 132 - 3 =129

x= 43

third number=43 +1 +1= 45

Answer 2

x + 2 , x + 4, x + 6 =132

3x + 12 = 132

3x = 132-12

3x = 120

x = 120/3

x = 40

x + 2 = 40 + 2 = 42

x + 4 = 40 + 4 = 44

x + 6 = 40 + 6 = 46
