Answer 1

1st integer = x

2nd integer = x + 2

x + x + 2 = 54

2x + 2 = 54

2x = 52

x = 26

The 1st integer is 26.

The 2nd integer is 28.

Let's add these numbers.

26 + 28 = 54

54 = 54

Answer 2

26 + 28 = 54

lf we will add 26 and 28 we will get 54 as answer and 26 and 28 are 2 consecutive even numbers too so that is the correct answer
