Let x = 1st integer, since consecutive even integer differs by 2 then the 2nd integer = x + 2. So we have,

x + 4(x + 2) = 48

x + 4x + 8 = 48

5x = 40

x = 8 (1st integer)

Thus, the integers are 8 and 10.

Check.

The sum of two consecutive numbers is 22 Let x equals the smaller number Which let statement would you use for the larger number?

L = 22 - x. There is no solution in integers for this statement: it is not possible in this Universe for two consecutive numbers to add to an even number. Nearest answer is 10½ and 11½.


What are the two consecutive integers with a sum of 58?

There are no two consecutive integers that sum to 58. With two consecutive integers, one is even, the other is odd. The sum of an even number and an odd number is odd. 58 is even so cannot be the sum of two consecutive integers.


The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 100 What is the smaller number?

The two numbers can be thought of as: Smaller Odd Number = x + 1 (Add one to ensure it is an odd number) Larger Consecutive Odd Number = Smaller Number + 2 = x + 1 + 2 = x + 3 We know that Smaller Odd Number + Larger Consecutive Odd Number = 100 (X + 1) + (x + 3) = 100 2x + 4 = 100 2x = 96 x = 48 Smaller Odd Number = 48 + 1 = 49 The smaller odd number is 49. The next consecutive odd number of course is 51.


The sum of two consecutive numbers is 70 the larger number is 4 more than twice the smaller number what is the smaller number?

The sum of two consecutive integers can not be even unless both are even or both are odd.x+y=70y=4+2xx+(4+2x)=704+3x=703x=70-43x=66x=22y=70-22y=48The two numbers are 22 and 48. 22 is the smaller.


What does non consecutive mean?

Consecutive integers are integers that follow in sequence. Each number is 1 more than the previous numbers.

What two consecutive even integer such that the smaller number is 5 times the larger number gives a sum of 34?

There can be no such integers: a smaller integer cannot be 5 times the larger number.


When the smaller of two consecutive integers is added to four times the larger the result is 59?

Let the smaller be n, then the larger is n+1; and: n + 4(n+1) = 59 → n + 4n + 4 = 59 → 5n = 55 → n = 11 → the two consecutive integers are 11 and 12.

The sum of two consecutive even integers is 226 What is the larger integer?

114.As we know that the numbers are 2 consecutive even integers, we know that one number will be 2 larger than the other. We can use this to solve the problem with algebra:Where x is the smaller number,x + (x + 2) = 2262x + 2 = 2262x = 224x = 112Therefore the larger integer is 112 + 2 = 114
