1. let the three multiples be 12x, 12x+12, and 12x+24.

   from given,

   (12x) + (12x+12) + (12x+24) = 468

   36x + 36 = 468

   36x = 468 – 36 = 432

   x = 432/36

   x = 12

   the three multiples are 12x = 12(12) = 144

   12x + 12 = 12(12) + 12 = 156

   12x + 24 = 12(12) + 24 = 168

   Hope this helps!!

2. Step-by-step explanation:

   Let the multiples be x,x+12 ,x +24

   x+x+12+x+24 = 468

   3x + 36 = 468

   3x = 468-36

   X = 432/3

   X= 144

   so the no’s are

   x = 144

   x+12 =156

   x+24=168

   I hope this will help you
