The sum of two consecutive even integers is 86 Find the larger number?

If two consecutive numbers add up to 86 then we can set up an equation like this:
x=the first number
So it makes sense that
x+2=the second number (since the numbers are consecutive)
And you know the sum of the two is 86. So the resulting equation is
(x) + (x+2) = 86
=>
2x + 2 = 86
2x = 84
x = 42
So the two numbers are 42 and 44.

Find two consecutive even integers so that three times the smaller is 40 mor than two time the larger?
There are no two consecutive even integers, consecutive odd integers, or consecutive integers that satisfy that relationship.
Find two consecutive integers whose sum is eighty nine let x be the smaller of these two integers what is the larger of these two consecutive integers what r the two numbers?
44 & 45
Find two consecutive odd integers if twice the larger increased by the smaller equals 85?
27, 29
The sum of two consecutive even integers is 90.find the numbers?
Divide the sum of the two consecutive even integers by 2: 90/2 = 45. The smaller of these integers will be one less than 45 and the larger will be one more than 45, so the two consecutive even integers will be 44 and 46.
Find two consecutive integers such that the sum of the smaller and 3 times the larger is 330?
x + 3(x +1) = 330 4x = 327 which doesn't give an answer in integers. If question should read "consecutive ODD integers" the answer would be 81 and 83.
Two negative consecutive odd integers have a product of 63 find the larger number?
Two negative consecutive odd integers that have a product of 63 are -7 and -9. -7 is larger than -9. -7 is the answer.
Find two consecutive even integers so that three times the smaller is 40 mor than two time the larger?
There are no two consecutive even integers, consecutive odd integers, or consecutive integers that satisfy that relationship.
Two consecutive odd integers have a product of 99 find the larger number?
The two numbers are 9 and 11, or indeed -9 and -11. Therefore, the larger number is 11 (or -9).
If sum of two consecutive integers is 228 find the integers?
The sum of any two consecutive integers must be an odd number. So this question is incorrect.
Find two consecutive integers whose sum is eighty nine let x be the smaller of these two integers what is the larger of these two consecutive integers what r the two numbers?
44 & 45
When the smaller of two consecutive integers is added to three times the larger the result is 51. Find the integers?
12 and 13.
How do I find two consecutive odd integers that equal 255?
The sum of two consecutive odd integers is an even number. There is no possible answer to this question.
What is the sum 98 find the smaller number The consecutive integers?
No two consecutive integers can add up to 98.No three consecutive integers can add up to 98.But 23, 24, 25, and 26 can.
Find two consecutive integers such that the larger is nine more than twice the smaller?
-10 and -11.
What are the consecutive odd integers of 152?
find the two consecutive odd integers with a sum of 152
