Question

Find two consecutive negative integers whose sum is -27

Answer 1

Explanation:

x = first integer

x + 1 = second integer

x + x + 1 = -27

2x + 1 = -27

2x = -27 - 1

2x = -28

x = -28/2

x = -14

x + 1 = -14 + 1 = -13

so ur 2 numbers are : -13 and -14

Answer 2

-13 and -14

Since -27 is odd, divide it by 2 and ignore the remainder. You'll get -13. So, -27=-13+-14
