The greatest even integer less than 2 is zero. The next greatest is -2. The sum of the two greatest even integers less than 2 is -2.
10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and all the negative even integers.
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.
The pair of consecutive integers which add up to 55 are 27 and 28. Therefore, any consecutive pair of numbers below 27 and 28 add up to a total less than 55.
integers are x and x + 2, so x + 2 = 2x - 10 ie x = 12. Integers are 12 and 14
When the integers are negative.
less than
The greatest even integer less than 2 is 0, and the smallest even integer greater than 1 is 2. Therefore, the sum of these two integers is 0 + 2, which equals 2.
three consecutives numbers: a = smallest a+2 a+4 14 less = -14 than twice the smallest = 2a so... a+a+2+a+4=-14+2a 3a+6=-14+2a 3a-2a=-14-6 a=-20 answer: smallest = -20 greatest = -16
The set of positive odd integers.
224, 225
10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and all the negative even integers.
44 and55
None. The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
256 is the greatest even square number that is less than 300.
Every nonempty subset of the negative integers has a greatest element because the set of negative integers is well-ordered by the standard order of integers. This means that for any nonempty subset of negative integers, there exists a least upper bound, which is the greatest element in that subset. Since negative integers are ordered, any nonempty subset will always contain an element that is less than or equal to all other elements in that subset, ensuring the presence of a greatest element.
