Answer 2

Answer:

First Even Number: 122 , Second Even Number = 124

Step-by-step explanation:

Let numbers be 2x, 2x+2.

A.T.Q

Adding the Numbers we get = 2x +2x+2 = 4x + 2 ---(1)

∵ Sum of Numbers = 246 ---(2)

Equating (1) and (2),

4x + 2 = 246

4x = 244

x = 61

The first number = 2x = 2 * 61 = 122

The second number = 2x + 2 = 2 * 61 + 2 = 124
