You can put this solution on YOUR website! If one page is x
the other will be (x+1)
x(x+1)=1190
x^2+x=1190
x^2+x-1190
x^2+35x-34x-1190
x(x+35)-34(x+35)=0
(x+35)(x-34)
x= 34
The pages are 34,35

Let the 1st page number be "x".
The next is "x+1":
Equation:
x(x+1) = 1190
x^2+x-1190 = 0
(x+35)(x-34) = 0
Positive solution:
x = 34
x+1 = 35
