Question

the sum of two consecutive positive even integers is 58 find the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and (x+2)

therefore, x + (x+2) = 58

=2x + 2 = 58

(Transposing 2 to Right Hand Side of the eqution)

therefore, 2x=58-2=56

2x=56

transposing 2 to Right Hand Side of the equation

therefore,

x = 56 divided by 2

therefore, x = 28

and

x + 2 = 30
