Question

If the sum of two consecutive number is 11 .find the number.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data, the sum of two consecutive numbers is -11. Let us consider the first number to be a variable 'a', therefore the consecutive number of a is 'a + 1'. ⟹a = -6, hence a + 1 = -6 + 1 = -5. Hence the two consecutive numbers are -6 and -5.

Answer 2

Let first number be x

Let another number be (x+1)

Sum of two (given) = 11

=> (x)+(x+1) = 11

=> 2x +1 = 11

=>2x =10

=> 10/2

=> 5

x= 5

Another number = (x+1) => 5+1 =>6

Required numbers are = 5,6
