Answer 2

Answer:

a)25 + 27 b) 35 + 39

Step-by-step explanation:

a) First we divide 52 by 2

= we obtain an even number: 26

as, this is not an even number we add 1 to one number and subtract 1 from the other. Thus we get 25 and 27

b) First  we divide 74 by 2

= we get an odd number: 37

we require 2 different odd numbers and the difference between 2 consecutive even numbers is 2 so we subtract 37 by 2 ( First no. ) and add 37 by 2 ( second no. )

thus, we get 35 + 39
