Ramadan wrote three consecutive even numbers ,he found that the total of those numbers is 66. Which number is the biggest among those numbers

Answer 1

Let's call the first even number x. Since x is even, the next even number would be (x + 2), and the next even number after that would be (x + 4).

The total of these three consecutive even numbers is x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 3x + 6.

According to the question, the total is 66. So we have the equation 3x + 6 = 66.

Simplifying the equation, we get 3x = 60.

Dividing both sides by 3, we find x = 20.

So, the three consecutive even numbers are 20, 22, and 24.

Out of these numbers, the biggest number is 24.
