The sum of three consitutive even number is 150 FIND the numbers ?

\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{red}{pink}{❥Answer }}

  • Let the lowest number by y

  • The 3 numbers are then y, y+2, and y+4

  • Addding the three together

y+y+2+y+4

= 3y+6

But 3y+6=150

3y+6=150

3y=150-6=144

y=144/3

y=48

So the numbers are 48,49,50

More to KNOW :

  • Numbers that follow each other continuously in the order from smallest to largest are called consecutive numbers.

  • For example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and so on are consecutive numbers.

  • If N is an INTEGER, (n + 1) and (n + 2) will be the NEXT two consecutive integers.

  • For example, let n be 1. We find its consecutive integers as (1 + 1) and (1 + 2), or 2 and 3
