Two consecutive even integers that equal 126

Two consecutive even integers that equal 126

Let the first integer equal x. So the next even integer must be x + 2.

The sum which is equal to 126 is written as x + (x + 2) = 126

Simplify:
2x + 2 = 126

Using our equation calculator, we get:
x = 62

This means the next consecutive even integer is 62 = 2 = 64.

So our two even consecutive integers with a sum of 126 are (62, 64)
