Consecutive numbers mean numbers which come right after one another.For ex 3 and 4, 45 and 46, etc.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Even numbers are number which are divisible by 2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, consecutive even numbers mean numbers which come after one another and are divisible by 2 for eg. 4 and 6, 22 and 24, etc.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let us assume the first number to be x. For the other number to be consecutive it has to be 2 more than x. So, our second number is x + 2. Now we are given the sum of these two numbers is 400. So, our equation would look something like this :
\n" ); document.write( " x+x+2 = 400
\n" ); document.write( " 2x + 2=400
\n" ); document.write( "2x= 400-2
\n" ); document.write( "2x= 398
\n" ); document.write( "x=398/2
\n" ); document.write( "x=199
\n" ); document.write( "and second number is x+2 = 199+2 = 201\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The two consecutive numbers which form a sum of 400 are 199 and 201 but they are odd. There are no two even consecutive numbers which can form a sum of 400.
