Question

Conservative intergers

Answer 1

Let the first number be (x-1).

For the second number to be consecutive of the first,it should be the exactly next number that comes after (x-1).

That is,(x-1+1)

That gives (x)

So x is the second number.

Now since the summation is given as 37,

we write,

(x-1)+(x)=37

2x-1=37

2x=38

x=19

So the second number is 19.

The first number is (x-1)

That is 19–1

Equals 18

So the numbers (x-1) and (x) are 18 and 19 respectively.

Hence, the two consecutive numbers are 18 and 19.

This is the method to solving this type of problem
