Question

The sum of two consecutive even integers is 42. What is the product of the two consecutive even integers?

Answer 1

Answer:

  440

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of the integers is the odd integer between them. That is found by dividing their sum by 2:

  42/2 = 21

The even integers are 20 and 22. Their product is 20∙22 = 440.
