  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!!

    Pls mark me as brainliest!!

  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
