Let the nnumbers be x , x+2 and x+4
According to the question,
x+(x+2) +(x+4)=30
x+x+x+2+4=30
3x+6=30
3x= 24
x= 8
even numbers are 8 , 10, and 12
extreme numbers are 8 &12
If the first number taken is 8 and the other number 12,then
64-144=-80
If the first number taken is 12 and the other number 8,then
144-64=80
