    Step-by-step explanation:

    First we have to write the given data in mathematical terms.

    this would be 2n, 2n+2 and 2n+4

    So

    2n+2n+2 tells us that it would be 30

    so 4n+2=30

    30-2=28 as + 2-2 makes 0

    4n=28

    divide by 4

    n=7

    we have found n meaning we can substitute to the equations

    so 2n=2*7 is 14

    2n+2 is 2*7+2=16

    2n+4 is 2*7+4 is 18

    Therefore the three consecutive numbers are:

    14,16 and 18
