Question

5. Find two consecutive numbers whose sum is 73​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let 1 st no be x

Then, second no be x + 1

Then, x + x + 1=73

= 2x + 1= 73

= 2x = 73 -1

= 2x = 72 = x = 72/2=36

Then, 1 st no = x = 36

And 2nd no = x + 1= 36 +1 =37

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let, the two consecutive no. be x and x+1.

solution:-x+x+1=73

or,2x+1=73

or,2x=73-1

or2x=72

or,x=72\2

or,x=36

hence,x=36andx+1=37
