Question

Find the sum of two consecutive even number whose sum is i30​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

★ Correct Question :

Find two consecutive even numbers whose sum is 130.

Let,

First consecutive even number = x

Second consecutive even number = x + 2

★ According to the question :

The sum two consecutive even number is 130

So,

⇒ (x) + (x + 2) = 130

⇒ 2x + 2 = 130

⇒ 2x = 130 - 2

⇒ 2x = 128

⇒ x = 128 / 2

⇒ x = 64

First consecutive even number is 64

Second consecutive even number = x + 2

⇒ x + 2

⇒ 64 + 2

⇒ 66

The sum two consecutive even number is 130 :

⇒ 64 + 66

⇒ 130

Therefore,

The consecutive even numbers are 64 and 66

Answer 2

Given :-

• Sum of two consecutive even number is 130.

To find :-

• The two number

According to the question,

Let the first consecutive even number be x

And second consecutive even number be x + 2

So,

→ x + x + 2 = 130

→ 2x + 2 = 130

→ 2x = 130 - 2

→ 2x = 128

→ x = 128 ÷ 2

.°. x = 64

_______________...

So,

The first consecutive even number is x

→ x

→ 64

_______________....

The second consecutive even number is x + 2

→ x + 2

→ 64 + 2

→ 66

__________...

Verification :

As given in the question,

The sum of two consecutive even number is 130

→ 64 + 66 = 130

→ 130 = 130

.°. L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence,verified...
