Question

Find two consecutive internet's whose sum is 75

Answer 1

37 and 38

consecutive integers have a difference of 1 between them

let n and n + 1 be the consecutive integers, then

n + n + 1 = 75 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2n = 74 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n =
`(74)/(2)` = 37

the integers are 37 and 37 + 1 = 38
