Let the larger number be n, then obviuosly just less even number is n-2

Given n+n-2=226
thus 2n-2=226
2n=228
n=114
According to our assumption n is the larger among the even nos
So answer is114(Verification 112+114=226)

The sum of two consecutive even integers is 226. What is the larger integer? 114 116 112 118
