Answer:

The two numbers are 58 and 60

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x and y

then:

y+3x=234

since the two numbers are consecutive even integers then y=x+2

and since y+3x=234

then (x+2)+3x=234

then 4x+2=234

then 4x=234–2

then x=232/4=58

then the other number (y) = x+2= 58+2=60
