If $\"x\"$ is any number, then $\"x\"$ and $\"x+%2B+1\"$ are consecutive numbers.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "given:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "difference of $\"5\"$ times of smaller ( $\"5x\"$ ) and $\"4\"$ times of bigger ( $\"4%28x+%2B+1%29\"$ ) is 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, we have:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+-+4%28x+%2B+1%29+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+-4x+-4+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+3%2B4\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+7\"$ ......... $\"x+%2B+1=8%7D%7D...your+numbers+are+%7B%7B%7B7\"$ an $\"8\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+-+4%28x+%2B+1%29+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%2A7+-+4%287+%2B+1%29+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"35-+4%288%29+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"35-+32+=+3\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3+=+3\"$ \r
