<h3 /><h3>▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄</h3><h3>Required Solution :</h3>

Let the first even number be 'x' & the second even number be (x + 2)

<u>According to the Question</u>,

⇒x + (x + 2) = 34

⇒x + x + 2 = 34

⇒2x + 2 = 34

⇒2x = 34 - 2

⇒2x = 32

⇒x = 32/2

⇒x = 16

⇒First even number = x = 16

⇒Second even number = (x + 2) = 16 + 2 = 18

<u>∴</u><u> </u><u>The t</u><u>wo consecutive even n</u><u>u</u><u>m</u><u>b</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>s</u><u> are 16 & 18</u> ...!

<h3>Verefication : </h3>

As, In our Question it was given that "The sum of two consecutive even numbers is thirty-four". So, as we got our two consecutive even numbers as 16 & 18 ... By this, we can say that these both even numbers should be equals to 34, i.e., 16 + 18 = 34. Hence, The equation which we formed is correct ...!

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

6 times

Step-by-step explanation:

We will have to divide in order to solve this problem.

\frac{3}{4}÷\frac{1}{8}

We will have to find the reciprocal of 1/8, which is basically flipping it, so it is 8.

After, we will have to multiply 3/4x8. The product would come out as 24/4, and if you simplify it, the answer will be 6 times.
