Question

The sum two consecutive numbers in 65 find the numbers

Answer 1

LET THE NUMBER BE X

SECOND NUMER WILL BE X+1 BECAUSE THEY ARE CONSECUTIVE NUMBERS

SO X+X+1=65                    (SUM OF THE NUMBERS IS 65)

2X+1=65

2X=64

X=32

THEREFORE THE NUMBERS ARE 32 AND 33

HOPE IT HELPS:-)

Answer 2

$\large\underline\purple{\bold{Solution :- }}$

Let two consecutive numbers be 'x' and 'x + 1'.

$\boxed{ \blue{ \: \rm : \implies \:According \: to \: statement}}$

Sum of two consecutive numbers is 65.

$\rm : \implies \:x \: + \: x \: + \: 1 \: = \: 65$

$\rm : \implies \:2x \: + \: 1 \: = \: 65$

${ \: \rm : \implies \:2x \: = \: 65 \: - \: 1}$

$\rm : \implies \:2x \: = \: 64$

$\boxed{ \pink{ \: \rm : \implies \:x \: = \: 32}}$

$\boxed{ \purple{\begin{gathered}\begin{gathered}\bf \: Hence, \: numbers \: are \: \begin{cases} &\sf{x \: = 32} \\ &\sf{x + 1 = 32 + 1 = 33} \end{cases}\end{gathered}\end{gathered}}}$
