Question

The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 20

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 1st number be x

2nd number = x + 2

3rd number = x + 4

4th number = x + 6

5th number = x + 8

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 20

5x + 20 = 20

5x = 20 - 20

5x = 0

x = 0 ÷ 5

x = 0

The 5 consecutive integers are

0, 2, 4, 6, 8
