Let the first number be x 

1st number = x
2nd number = x + 2
3rd number = x + 4
4th number = x + 6
5th number = x + 8

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 120
5x + 20 = 120
5x = 100
x = 20

3rd number = x + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24

Answer: 24

What is the gcf of 21 30 anwhat is the gcf of 21 , 30 ,and 44?
Ymorist [56]
Find the prime factorization of each value.

21 is 7*3

30 is 3*10 which can be further broken down into 3*2*5

44 is 4*11 which can be further broken down into 2*2*11

What do they share in common?
21 and 30 each have a 3 in common.
Therefore the GCF(21, 30) = 3.

21 and 44 share a 2 in common.
But if we're looking at all three of them together, they share nothing in common.
