You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You can do this without \"algebra\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You want two numbers, consecutive whole numbers; TWO of them.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide 63 by 2;
\n" ); document.write( "you get 31.5.
\n" ); document.write( "This is non-whole, so take the whole part which is 31.
\n" ); document.write( "The next number would be 32;
\n" ); document.write( "\"31%2B32=63\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Do you really want to do this using algebra?
\n" ); document.write( "\"n%2B%28n%2B1%29=63\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"n%2Bn%2B1=63\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n=63-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n=62\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28n=31%29\" so the consecutive number is \"n%2B1=31%2B1=highlight%2832%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
