Question

If the sum of two consecutive integers is 27, then the integers are (A) 7 and 20 (B) 13 and 14 (C) 1 and 26 (D) - 13 and - 14 answer pls​

Answer 1

Answer:

(B) 13 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

1st no: x

2nd no: (x+1)

Given sum is 27, so:

x+x+1=27

=2x+1=27

=2x=27-1

2x=26

x=26/2=13

Therefore 1st no=x=13, and second no=(x+1)=13+1=14
