The sum of four consecutive even numbers is 52, Find the third number ?
Choices:
A) 14 B) 10 C) 12 D) 16 E) 20
Let the first number be n   Let the second number be n + 2   Let the third number be n + 4   Let the third number be n + 6   n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = 52   Combine like terms:   4n + 12 = 52   4n + 12 = 52   4n = 52 - 12   4n = 40   n = 10   n + 2 = 12   n + 4 = 14   n + 6 = 16   The third number is 14   14nswer: 14
