~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sum of two consecutive integers can not be even number (as 118 in your post).

It is an ODD number, ALWAYS.

Therefore, the problem's formulation in your post is FATALLY WRONG.

It makes a statement, which is NEVER true.

So, REVISE your post and your problem, and re-post an updated version to the forum, again.

Please do not post your update to me personally.

        from which you draw wrong problems to post them to the forum ?
