| Good evening, I need to find an answer to the following: Even integers. Find two consecutive even integers that have a sum of 450 Thank you very much, Cheryl |

Hi Cheryl, An example of two consecutive even integers is 16 and 18. Their sum is 34 which is twice 17. Let's look at the question this way: how many different ways can two numbers add up to 450? Answer: quite a lot! But if the two numbers were really close (as two consecutive even integers are), then wouldn't they be very close to half of 450? Hope this helps!
