Let the smallest number = x
The 2nd even number would be x +2
4 times the first = 4x
3 times the second = 3(x+2)
Set them to equal each other and solve:
4x = 3(x+2)
Simplify:
4x = 3x +6
Subtract 3x from each side:
x =6
The smallest number is 6
The second number is 6+2 = 8
The two numbers are 6 and 8
