Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller of two consecutive integer be x therefore other integer is x+ 1
As per statement the sum of two consecutive integers is 41. To find out the integers.
x + (x + 1) = 41
x + x + 1 = 41
2x + 1 = 41
2x = 41 - 1
2x = 40
x = 40/2
x = 20
The smaller of two consecutive integers is 20, thus other integer is x + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21
The two consecutive integers are 20 and 21
Answer the two consecutive integers are 20 and 21
