The sum of two consecutive even integers is 234. What is the larger integer?

1 answer:

5 0

If the sum of two consecutive even integers is 234, the larger integer would be 118, and the smaller integer would be 116. This is because you take 234 and divide by 2. Take those numbers and add one to one side, and take away one number on the other side.
