\n" ); document.write( "let two consecutive even integers be $\"x\"$ and $\"x%2B2\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if six times the first is three times the second we have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x=3%28x%2B2%29\"$ .......solve for $\"x\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x=3x%2B6\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x-3x=6\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x=6\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=6%2F3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=2\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, first even integer is $\"highlight%28x=2%29+\"$ and second even integer is $\"highlight%28x=4%29+\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x=3%28x%2B2%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6%2A2=3%282%2B2%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"12=3%284%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"12=12\"$ \r
