 let x be the first integer
 x+ 2 the second integer  ( two consecutive even ) 

smaller integer  added to three times the larger  <span>x + 3 ( x+2)
  </span>two less than five times the smaller  <span>5x - 2</span>

x + 3 ( x+2)   =  5x - 2

x+3x +6 = 5x -2 

x=8       
the first  integer = 8
the second is  x+2 =10

The answer is twelve millionth



In a scientific notation, you have to put a decimal right after the first number (unless it is a zero). How many times you move the decimal from its original spot determines the answer. (FYI: In a number like 196 the decimal point is 196.000<--here)

If there is 2/3 of a bag of jelly beans and danny ate 1/4 of the bag last night what fraction of the bag is left
ICE Princess25 [194]
2/3 = 8/12
1/4 = 4/12

You start with 8/12 and eat 4/12 so 4/12 (or one quarter) remains.
