Question

The sum of two consicutive natural number is 44

Answer 1

$\large \underline{ \underline{ \sf \: Solution : \: \: \: }}$

Let ,

The two consecutive numbers be x and x + 1

By the given condition ,

$\sf \implies x + x + 1 = 44 \\ \\ \sf \implies 2x = 44 - 1 \\ \\ \sf \implies x = \frac{43}{2}$

$\therefore$The numbers are 43/2 and 45/2

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two consecutive natural number is x and x +1

then,

x + x + 1 = 44

2x + 1 = 44

2x + 1 = 44

2x = 44 - 1

2x = 43

x = 43/2

therefore,

the number is x = 43/2

and x + 1 = 43/2 + 1

= 43 + 2 / 2

= 45/2
