$\textbf{Question - }$

find two consecutive even numbers whose sum is 1998.

$\textbf{Solution - }$

Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+2

Now,

The sum of these numbers

$x + x + 2 = 1998 \\ 2x + 2 = 1998 \\ 2(x + 1) = 1998 \\ x + 1 = \frac{1998}{2} \\ x = 999-1\\x=998$
the first number be 998

and another number will be

x+2
998+2
=1000

So, the two consecutive numbers are 998 and 1000.
