Question

Frame an equation for the following statement:
1) Sum of two consecutive integers is 23​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let , The two consecutive numbers be x , x+1

According to the question,

x+x+1 = 23

2x =23 -1

2x = 22

x= 22/2

x= 11

And the other number is 11+1

=12

The two numbers are 11 and 12

Answer 2

Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1

ATQ,

Sum of two consecutive numbers= 23

$x + x + 1 = 23 \\ \\ 2x + 1 = 23 \\ \\ 2x = 23 - 1 \\ \\ 2x = 22 \\ \\ x = \frac{22}{2} \\ \\ x = \cancel\frac{22}{2} \\ \\ x = 11$

So, X= 11

and other number is

$x + 1 \\ \\ 11 + 1 = 12$

So two numbers are 11 and 12

Hope this helps
