Question

The sum of 6 consecutive even numbers is 126

Answer 1

x+x+2+x+4+x+6+x+8+x+10=126
= 6x+30= 126
= 6x=126-30
= 6x=96
=x=96/6
=x=16
1st no. is 16
2nd is 18
3rd is 20
4rt is 22
5th is 24
6th is 26

Answer 2

To solve this question, start with the smallest and name it has n.

The next three numbers are n+1 and n+2.  

X+x+2+x+4+x+6+x+8+x+10=126 = 6x+30= 126, 6x=126-30, 6x=96, x=96/6, x=16.

So the 1st no. is 16,

2nd is 18,

3rd is 20,

4th is 22,

5th is 24 and

6th is 26.
