Answer 2

Given,

The sum of two consecutive numbers is 25.

To find,

The two consecutive numbers

Solution,

Let us assume that:

First consecutive number = n

The number next to n will be = n + 1

So, the consecutive numbers become n and n+1

Given that the sum of two consecutive numbers = 25

So, n + (n+1) = 25

or, n+n+1 = 25

or, 2n + 1 = 25

or, 2n = 25 - 1 = 24

or, n = 24 / 2

or, n = 12

if n = 12, the n + 1 = 13

Hence, the two consecutive numbers are 12 and 13.
