Given :
- 3 consecutive multiples of 2
- Sum = 18
According to the question :
Let the 3 consecutive multiples of 2 be ' 2x , 2 ( x + 1 ) , 2 ( x + 4 )
⟹ 2x + 2 ( x + 2 ) + 2 ( x + 4 ) = 18
⟹ 3x + 12 = 18
⟹ 3x = 18 - 12
⟹ 3x = 6
⟹ x = 6 / 3
⟹ x = 2
To find :
➳ 2x = 2 × 2 = 4
➳ 2 ( x + 2 ) = 2 × ( 2 + 2 ) = 2 × 4 = 8
➳ 2 ( x + 4 ) = 2 × ( 2 + 4 ) = 2 × 6 = 12
So, It's Done !!
