Question
Find two consecutive even numbers, whose sum is $38.$
✓
Answer
Let the two consecutive even numbers be $2n$ and $2n + 1.$
Then As per the question,
$2n + (2n + 2) = 38$
$\Rightarrow 4n = 36$ or $n = 9$
Thus, numbers are $2n = 18$ and $2n + 1 = 20.$
Then As per the question,
$2n + (2n + 2) = 38$
$\Rightarrow 4n = 36$ or $n = 9$
Thus, numbers are $2n = 18$ and $2n + 1 = 20.$
