Let the four numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4 and x + 6.=> x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 36=> 4x + 12 = 36 => x = 6The numbers are 6, 8, 10 and 12.Sum of their squares = 62 + 82 + 102 + 122 = 36 + 64 + 100 + 144 = 344.
Let the number be 10x + y.∴ x + y = 12 ...........(i)10x + y - (10x + x) = 18or 10x + y - 10y - x = 18or 9x - 9y = 18∴ x - y = 2From (i) and (ii), x = 7, y = 5∴ Number = 75
