Answer 2

To find : two consecutive numbers

Given :  sum of two consecutive no. is $13$

Solution :

• We know that two consecutive numbers differ by $1$ .
• Let , two numbers be $x$ and $x + 1$ .
• Therefore , according to given we write as ,

          $x + x+ 1 = 13$

          $2x + 1 = 13 \\2x = 12 \\x = 6$  

• First number , $x$ = $6$  
• Second  number , $x + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7$

Hence , two numbers are $6$ and $7$ .
