Question

Sum of two consecutive multiples of 2 is 22, find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Let first multiple of 2 be x.

So, next multiple of 2 = x + 2

According to question,

x + x + 2 =22

2x+2=22

2x=22-2

2x=20

x=10

x+2=12

therefore the required numbers are 10,12

Answer 2

Let two consecutive numbers be x and x+2
