Answer:

5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x + 1

=> x + x + 1 = 11

=> 2x + 1 = 11

=> 2x = 11 - 1

=> 2x = 10

=> x = 5

So other number is (5 + 1) = 6

Hence two required consecutive numbers are 5 and 6

Answer:

The answer for the question follows...

Pls mark me the brainliest....

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x.

Then, the 2nd consecutive number will be x+1.

Sum of consecutive numbers = 11.

So, x + x + 1 = 11

2x + 1 = 11

2x = 11 - 1 = 10

2x = 10

x = 10/2 = 5

Therefore,  the first number = 5

Then, the 2nd consecutive number =5 + 1 = 6.

Checking:

6+5=11

So, the two consecutive numbers are 6 and 5.
