    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
