Let one number be x
Add 1 to the number to get the next consecutive number:
The other number is x + 1
.
The sum is 61:
x + x + 1 = 61
2x + 1 = 61
2x = 60
x = 30
.
Find the numbers:
x = 30
x + 1 = 30 + 1 = 31
.
Answer: The two numbers are 30 and 31
why write x+1
Because in this case, we are looking for 2 consecutive numbers .. (Not 2 consecutive odd numbers or 2 consecutive even numbers). To find to the next number, we add 1 to the number we know. 1, 1+1=2, 2+1=3, 3+1=4 ...
iam not understand
two odd number or two even number can not give 61
We let one of the number be x. So, to find the next number, we add 1 to it. So for example, if x is 5, then the next number will be 5 + 1 = 6
