Answer:

the sum of 2 consecutive even integers is 66.

Explanation:

This means that if one integers is x, the other must be either x-2 or x+2. Therefore, we can write 6=x+(×-2)=2×2. Solving for x, we can find ×=34. this means that the other integer is 34-2=32. indeed, 32+34=66, and done hope this helped C:
