24. Let x be the smaller no. of the two consecutive even positive integers, hence the other number is x + 2. (Two consecutive even no. differs by 2).
Then, x > 5, x + 2 > 5 => a> 3.
And x + (x + 2) < 23
2x + 2 < 23
2x < 23 - 2
2x < 21
So, 5 < x
Hence, x can take the value 6, 8 and 10.
So, the required possible pair is given by (x, x + 2) are (6, 8), (8, 10) and (10, 12).
