Question

Find two consecutive positive
even numbers whose sum is
258. *​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let one number be = x

then, other even number = x+2

ATQ. x+x+2 = 258

        2x = 258-2

       2x = 256

       x = 256/2

       x = 128

hence one even number = 128

then other = x+2

                = 128+2

                = 130

hope this will help you

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the first number be X.

Second number be X+2

Given that their sum=258

That is,

X+X+2=258

2X+2=258

2X=258-2

2X=256

X=256/2

X=128

Therefore, The first number, X=128

The second number, X+2=128+2

=130
