Question

The sum of 6 consecutive even numbers is 126

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be an even number

Therefore x+2 is also even

Therefore first 6 even numbers:

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x +6) +(x + 8) = 126

5x+20=126

5x=126-20

5x=106

x=106/5 or 21.2

x+2=23.2

x+4=25.2

x+6=27.2

x+8=29.2

Adding these, you will get 106

Answer 2

Let the even number be X
The next consecutive even number is X+2
Thus X+X+2+X+4+X+6+X+8X+X+10
=126
6X+30=126
6X=96
X=16
