Question 998563: the sum of two consecutive even integers is at least 108.
Answer by fractalier(6550)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call the first x. The next must be x + 2.
Thus
x + (x + 2) >= 108
or
2x + 2 >= 108
2x >= 106
x >= 53 but x must be even.
If your teacher is really picky, you can establish some integer y, such that 2y is automatically an even number and go from there...
