If the sum of three consecutive even numbers is 24 more than the average of these numbers, then the largest of these numbers is?  Select:
A) 10	B) 12	C) 14	D) 16	E) 17
Explanation:   Let the smallest of these number be x. The other two numbers are (x + 2) and (x + 4).   x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = (X + (X+2) + (x+4)) / 3 + 24   3x + 3*(x + 2) + 3*(x + 4) = x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + 72   9x + 18 = 3x + 78   6x = 60   x = 10   Therefore, the largest number is 14.   ANSWER 14
