pls answer me I will mark u as brainlist if the answer is right ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the smaller integer be x .

Therefore, the next integer = x+1

According to the condition,

x + x+1 = 61

Therefore, 2x+1 = 61

Therefore, 2x = 61-1

Therefore, 2x = 60

Therefore, x = 60/2

Therefore, x= 30

Smaller integer = 30

The next integer = x + 1 = 30 + 1 = 31

Answer : The two consecutive integers are 30 and 31.
