This is pretty straight forward. We'll use x to represent the first integer.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We know that one number would be x and since it's looking for a consecutive even integer that would be x+2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the equation would be $\"x%2Bx%2B2=126\"$ or $\"2x=124\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=62\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B2=64\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Check
\n" ); document.write( " $\"62%2B64=126\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
