Question

Fine two consecutive even integers such that twice the smaller is 26 more than the larger.

Answer 1

n, n + 2 - two consecutive even integers

twice the smaller is 26 more than the larger

2n = (n + 2) + 26

2n = n + 2 + 26

2n = n + 28       subtract n from both sides

n = 28

n + 2 = 28 + 2 = 30

Answer: 28, 30.
