Answer: The two consecutive even numbers are 378 and 380.
Explanation: to solve this problem we need to write an equation with only one unknown variable. To do that we know that when we have an even number, let's call it "x", to express the even number that follows we can write "x+2" because if we add two, to an even number, the result will be the next even number. So the sum of two consecutive even integers can be written as: x+(x+2), if we divide that by four, and make it equal to 189.5, we will have our equation and we can solve it as follows:

x+(x+2)=189.5*4
2x+2=758
2x=758-2
2x=756
x=378
378 is our first number, to find the next one, we just add two.
378+2=380
Answer:
It is not a reasonable excuse

The first answer is correct since you are only supposed to put information that clarifies the sentence in parentheses. Only putting dinner in parentheses wouldn’t make sense since it is a crucial part of the sentence, nor would you only put 6:30pm in parentheses since you already have about outside of the parentheses so saying As soon as we had finished dinner it was about, I started my homework.,Doesn’t make sense that means that even if you put things in parentheses the sentence should still make sense if the parentheses aren’t there.
I hope this makes sense if not please comment and I can try to explain it better :)
