Question

the sum of 3 consecutive multiples of 4 is 60 find them

Answer 1

let the first no. be 'x'
Then the other no.s are (x+4) , (x+8)
ATQ
(x) + (x+4) + (x+8) = 60
3x + 12 = 60
3x = 48
x = 16
So the no.s are (16) , (16+4) , (16+8)
= 16 , 20 , 24

Answer 2

Answer:

Numbers are 16,20 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of 3 consecutive multiples of 4 is 60.

To find those numbers,let first number is x

then next number which is divisible by 4 is x+4 and next x+8

So, three consecutive multiples of 4 are

x,x+4 and x+8

According to the question

$x + x + 4 + x + 8 = 60 \\ \\ 3x + 12 = 60 \\ \\ 3x = 48 \\ \\ x = \frac{48}{3} \\ \\ x = 16$

First number is 16,

second is 16+4= 20

and third is x+8=24

Hope it helps you.
