Question

What two consecutive numbers are equal to 100?

Answer 1

HEY ❤️ ❤️

No two consecutive integers sum to

100 .

49 and 51 are the two consecutive odd integers whose sum is 100.

Assuming the problem is asking what two consecutive integers sum to

100 , then there is no answer, as for any integer n , we have

n+(n+1)=2n+1 , which is odd, while

100 is even.

Thus 2n+1≠100 for any integer n .

If the problem is asking for two consecutive odd integers whose sum is 100 , we can find them as follows:

Let n be the lesser of the two odd integers, then we have

n+(n+2)=100

⇒2n+2=100

⇒2n=98

⇒n=49

Thus the two consecutive odd integers are 49 and 49+2=51 .

Checking, we find that 49+51=100 , as desired.

Answer 2

Answer:

Two numbers are 49.5 and 50.5

Question ;

What two consecutive numbers are equal to 100

let 'n' be the the number

thus, consecutive numbers are 'n' and (n+1)

According to the question,

two consecutive numbers are equal to 100 ; sum is equal to 100

  n +n+1=100

or, 2n+1=100

or,2n=99

or,n=49.5

Hence n=  49.5 and n+1=49.5+1=50.5

Two numbers are 49.5 and 50.5
