Answer:

● Let first no. be x

Second no. = x + 1

According to question.....

x + x + 1 = 53

2x + 1 = 53

2x = 53 - 1 = 52

x = 52÷ 2

x= 26

Now.....

First no. = x = 26

second no. = x+ 1 = 26 + 1 = 27

Check -:

X + X + 1 =

26 + 27 = 53

● A factor is a number that divides into another number exactly and without leaving a remainder.

Answer:

Let n = the smaller whole number, and ...

Let n + 1 = the larger of the two consecutive whole numbers.

Since the sum of the two consecutive numbers is 53, we can write the following equation to solve for n:

n + (n + 1) = 53

n + n + 1 = 53

2n + 1 = 53

2n + 1 - 1 = 53 - 1

2n + 0 = 52

2n = 52

(2n)/2 = 52/2

(2/2)n = 52/2

(1)n = 26

n = 26

Therefore, ...

n + 1 = 26 + 1 = 27

CHECK:

n + (n + 1) = 53

26 + (26 + 1) = 53

26 + (27) = 53

26 + 27 = 53

53 = 53
