Question

The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 306. Find the numbers using
algebraic equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

100, 102, 104

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=306

3x+6=306

3x=306-6

x= 300÷3=100

the numbers are 100, (100+2)=102, (100+4)=104

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the three consecutive even numbers be x+1 ,x+3 , x+ 5

x+1+ x+ 3 + x + 5 = 306

3x + 9 = 306

3x = 306 - 9

3x = 297

x = 99

So the three numbers are;

x + 1 = 99 + 1 = 100

x + 3 = 99 + 3 = 102

x + 5 = 99 + 5 = 104
