Question

the sum of three consecutive multiple of 8 is 888.find the multiple​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\mathbb\purple{LET:-}$

Three Consecutive numbers are 8x , 8x + 8 and 8x + 16

$\mathbb\purple{SOLUTION:-}$

$\mathtt { 8x + 8x + 8 + 8x + 16 = 888}$

$\mathtt{ 24x + 24 = 888}$

$\mathtt{ 24x = 888 - 24}$

$\mathtt{24x = 864}$

$\mathtt {x = \frac{864}{24} }$

$\fbox\purple{x = 36}$

$\mathtt{8x = 8 \times 36}$

$\fbox\purple{ = 288}$

$\mathtt{8x + 8 = 8 \times 36 + 8}$

$\mathtt{ = 288 + 8}$

$\fbox\purple{ = 296}$

$\mathtt{8x + 16 = 8 \times 36 + 16}$

$\mathtt{ = 288 + 16}$

$\fbox\purple{ = 304}$

Multiples are 288 , 296 and 304
