Question

Two consecutive number whose sum is 56. find

Answer 1

One number = x

other= x+2

sum = 56

according to the sum

x+x+2= 56

2x+2 = 56

2x = 56-2

2x = 54

x = 54/2 = 27

one no. = 27

other = 29

Answer 2

Let x and (x+2) be the 2 integers:-
x+ (x+2) = 56
2x+2= 56
2x= 56-2
2x= 54
x= 54/2
x= 27 answer for smaller integer
27+2=29 answer for largest integer
Proof:-
27+29=56
56=56
