      D 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Given that, Sum of the three consecutive even numbers is 28 more than the average of those three numbers Let’s consider the three numbers as 2n, 2n + 2, 2n + 4 Therefore, =2n + 2n + 2 + 2n + 4 = (2n+2n+2+2n+4/3) + 28 => 6n + 6 = 2n + 2 + 28 => 4n = 24 => n = 6 Therefore, smallest number 2n = 2(6) = 12
