Question

the sum of two consecutive natural number is 113 .find the number

Answer 1

Let the number be x

two consecutive number is 113
as we take sum = x +1


x + ( x + 1 ) = 113

x + x + 1 = 113

2x = 113 - 1

2x = 112

x = 112 / 2

x = 56

so two number are

x = 56

x + 1 = 56 +1 = 57

Answer 2

first number =x
second consecutive no. =x+1
ATQ
x+x+1=113
2x+1=113
2x=113-1
2x=112
x=112/2
x=56
first consecutive number =56
second consecutive number =x+1
56+1
=57
