Question

The sum of two consecutive natural numbers is 83 . find the numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let one number be x

So, the other one will be x+1 ( as they are consecutive )

then, (x) + (x+1) = 83 = 2x + 1 = 83

2x = 83-1 = 82

x = 82/2 = 41

then the other number will be 41+1 = 42

Final answer :

The numbers are 41, 42

Answer 2

Answer:

1 less than 83=82

now 82/2=41

therefore 1st consecutive natural no.=41

other=83-41=42
