x the first number
\n" ); document.write( "(x + 1) the second number
\n" ); document.write( "x + (x + 1) <= 60
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 1 <= 60
\n" ); document.write( "add -1 to each side
\n" ); document.write( "2x <= 59
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by 2
\n" ); document.write( "x <= 59/2
\n" ); document.write( "x <= 29 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "Since x needs to be a whole number,
\n" ); document.write( "the largest value for x is 29.
\n" ); document.write( "The pair 29, 30 works.
\n" ); document.write( "Other possibilities
\n" ); document.write( "1,2
\n" ); document.write( "2,3
\n" ); document.write( "3,4
