Question

Two consecutive even integers have a sum of 38. What are the two integers?

Answer 1

its 18 and 20

Explanation:

Answer 2

18 & 20

Explanation:

Forming the equation,

→ x + (x + 2) = 38

→ 2x + 2 = 38

Now the value of x will be,

→ 2x + 2 = 38

→ 2x = 38 - 2

→ x = 36/2

→ [ x = 18 ]

Then the required integers are,

→ x = 18

→ x + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20

Hence, the integers are 18, 20.
