Question

The difference between the sum of 4 Consecutive even numbers and the sum of 2 consecutive odd numben is 44.​

Answer 1

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the four consecutive even numbers be x, x+2, x+4, x+6 and the 2 consecutive odd numbers be x+1, x+3

Then,

(x+x+2+x+4+x+ 6) - (x+1+x+3) = 44

(4x + 12) - (2x + 4) = 44

4x +12 -2x- 4 = 44

2x + 8 = 44

2x = 44-8

2x = 36

x= 18
