X 2 + ( X + 1 )2 = 313
X2 + X2 + 2X + 1 = 313
2X2 + 2X -312 = 0
X2 + X - 156 = 0
X2 + 13X -12X -156 = 0
X ( X + 13 ) -12 ( X + 13 ) = 0
X = 12 Or -13
Since it’s natural number, X = 12
Numbers are 12 & 13
X2 + X2 + 2X + 1 = 313
2X2 + 2X -312 = 0
X2 + X - 156 = 0
X2 + 13X -12X -156 = 0
X ( X + 13 ) -12 ( X + 13 ) = 0
X = 12 Or -13
Since it’s natural number, X = 12
Numbers are 12 & 13

Let the two consecutive natural numbers be x,x+1
==>x²+(x+1)²=313
==>x²+x²+2x+1=313
==>2(x²+x)=312
==>x²+x=156
==>x²+x-156=0
==>x²+13x-12x-156=0
==>x(x+13)-12(x+13)=0
==>(x+13)(x-12)=0
==>x=12 (As the natural number cannot be negative,x is not equal to 13)
Therefore,x=12
x+1=12+1=13
So,The numbers are 12,13.
