Question

The sum of two consecutive even integers is 54. What are the two integers?

Answer 1

Answer:

26 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sum of two even numbers = 54

let one number be x

another number be x +2

x + x +2 = 54

2x + 2 = 54

2x = 54 - 2

2x = 52

x = 52/2

x = 26

Therefore, the numbers are 26 and 26 + 2 = 28..
