Question

Find two consecutive even numbers whose sum is 186

Answer 1

Answer:

92,94

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+2)=186

x+x+2=186

2x= 186-2 = 184

x=184/2

x=92→ (1)

(x+2)= 92+2=94

Answer 2

Answer:

SOLUTION : How do I find two consecutive even integers with the sum of 186. Let n be the smallest of the consecutive integers. Since n = 92, n+2 = 94, and so 92,94 are the integers.

OR

= x + ( x + 2 ) = 186

= x + x + 2 = 186

= 2x = 186 - 2 = 184

= x = 184/2 or 184 ÷ 2

= x = 92

= ( x + 2 ) = 92 + 2 = 94

= 92 + 94 = 186
