Question

Add any three numbers of the following and answer should be 60?

(2 , 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50, 54, 58)

Answer 1

six, twenty- two, and thirty

Answer 2

This is not possible.

Explanation:

The given series is : 2 , 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50, 54, 58

Now, adding any three numbers to get 60, is not possible.

The numbers are in the form
`2+4n` where n is a positive integer.

Summing together three such numbers you get
`6+4N`

(N = n1 + n2 + n3, ...)

We want to get
`6+4N= 60`

=>
`4N =54`

=>
`n1+n2+n3 =27.5`

Hence, it is not possible.
