In scanf, you have to specify the address of a variable, such as &i, &j, and a list of format specifiers (%d). The number of format specifiers must be the same as the number of variables.

#include <stdio.h>

main(){
  int i,j,k;
  printf("Input two integers and press Enter to comfirm:");

  scanf("%d%d",&i,&j);
  k = i + j;
  printf("sum of two numbers is %d \n",k);
}

Input two integers and press Enter to comfirm:223
     2
     sum of two numbers is 225
