Answer 2

not sure ok

Answer 3

ok, thanks
anyone have any other idea?

Answer 4

Try these consecutive number problems on your own. Even if you can figure some of them out without the methods above, try them using consecutive variables for practice:

1. 4 consecutive even numbers have a sum of 92. What are the numbers?

2. Five consecutive numbers have a sum of zero. What are the numbers?

3. Two consecutive odd numbers have a product of 35. What are the numbers?

4. Three consecutive multiples of five have a sum of 75. What are the numbers?

Answer 6

is not 80

Answer 7

not multiple choice

Answer 8

No it wouldnt be 80 has to be 2 consecutive even numbers one second im looking at it

Answer 9

Thanks KIOwNIOvE

Answer 10

Solve x(x+2) =340 for x, you get x=18 as positive solution.
You can verify to 18 x 20=360
