Answer 1

x+x+2+x+4=54
3x+6=54
3x=48
x=48/3=16
x=16
x+2=18
x+4=20
so, the three consecutive even numbers are
16,18,20

Answer 2

Answer:

Here is your solution

Let,

The first even integer be:x

Then the second even integer is:x+2

Then the third even integer is: x+2+2=x+4

Sum of three consecutive even numbers =54

A/q

(x)+(x+2)+(x+4)=54

3x+6=54

3x=54-6

3x=48

x=16

now

The first integer is:x=16

the second integer is:x+2=16+2=18

the third integer is: x+4=16+4=20
