Answer 1

Answer:

42. and 44 are the numbers of which 44 is larger

Answer 2

Let one of the number be x

As they both are consecutively even so, other number would be => x + 2

ATQ -

x + x + 2 = 86

2x + 2 = 86

2x = 86 - 2

2x = 84

x = 84÷2

x = 42

So, one number is 42 other would be 42 + 2 = 44

Larger of these two is 44.
