Answer:
<em>1st number =</em> -10
<em>2nd number =</em> -8
<em>3rd number =</em> -6
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Take the first number as x</em>
The next consecutive even number will be x+2
The 3rd even number will be x+4.
<em>Sum of 1st and 3rd number = -16</em>
(x) + (x+4) = -16
x+ x+4 = -16
2x + 4 = -16
2x = -16 -4
2x = -20
x =
x = -10
2nd number = x+ 2
= -10 + 2
= -8
3rd number = x + 4
= -10 + 4
= -6
