Find 2 consecutive integral numbers whose sum 51??? I tried but i don't know what are consecutive integral numbers.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"Integral numbers\" are \"whole numbers\" that is -- integers.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = smaller consecutive number
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = larger consecutive number
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "from: \"2 consecutive integral numbers whose sum 51\" we get our equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x + x+1 = 51
\n" ); document.write( "2x+1 =51
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 50
\n" ); document.write( "x = 25 (smaller number)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Lareger number:
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = 25+1 = 26
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "the two numbers are then 25 and 26
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
