Question

Sum of the consecutive integer is 24 find the integer

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the consecutive integer be x.

Let the another consecutive number be(x+2)

So, According to Question

x+(x+2)=24(Sum of the Numbers is 24)

2x+2=24

2x=22

x=11.

So, The integers are 11(as of value of x )& 13 (as of value of x+2).

What are Consecutive Numbers?

Numbers which follow a same order or pattern. That's why we took x+2 AS another integer AS it follows a pattern.

Answer 2

AnswEr:

two integers are 11.5 and 12.5

SoluTion:

Given that, sum of two integers is 24.

Let the consecutive integers be x and x+1.

$\therefore$ x + x + 1 = 24

$\implies$ 2x + 1 = 24

$\implies$ 2x = 24 - 1

$\implies$ 2x = 23

$\implies$ x = $\dfrac{23}{2}$

$\implies$ x = 11.5

Hence, two integers are 11.5 and 12.5

$\rule{200}2$

VerificaTion:

2(11.5) + 1 = 24

→ 23 + 1 = 24

→ 24 = 24

Verified.
