Question

THE SUM OF THREE CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLES OF 8 IS 888.FIND THE NUMBER

Answer 1

Answer:

288, 296, 304

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be

x

x+8

x+16

so

(x) + (x+8) + (x+16) = 888

3x = 888 - (8 +16)

3x = 864

x = 864÷3

x= 288

x = 288 , x+8 = 296, x+16 = 304

Check

288+296+304 = 888
