Question 332834
Hello, 
We can set up the following equation where x is one number. 
x+(x+1)=86
Combine like terms to get:
2x+1=86
Subtract 1 from each side to get:
2x=85
x=42.5
Well, we can see there is no solution. 
Are you sure you copied the problem correctly?
Or should it read two consecutive even integers?
