Question

The sum of 2 consecutive positive integers is 365. Find the integer.

Answer 1

Let the numbers be x and x+1

A.T.Q

x + ( x+1 ) = 365

2x+1 = 365

2x = 364

x = 364/2

= 182

Hence, the numbers are 182 and 183

Answer 2

x+x+1 = 365
2x + 1 = 365
2x = 364
x = 364/2
threfore x = 182
the nos. are 182 and 183
check,
182 + 183 = 365
