Question

if the sum of two consetive number is 11 find the number

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+1) =11

2x+1=11

2x =10

x=5

x+1= 6

Thus, numbers are 5 and 6

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 consecutive numbers be x and x + 1

Then , according to the question x(x+1)= 11

2x + 1 = 11

2x = 11 - 1

2x = 10

x = 10/ 2 =5

so , x = 1 and x+ 1 = 5 + 1 = 6

therefore , the 2 consecutive numbers are 5 and 6.
