Question 267831
Mrs. Donegan opened a book so the sum of the page numbers on the facing pages was 33. Show the pages of her open book...What are the consecutive page numbers?
-------------
1st page: x
Next page: x+1
----------------------
Equatiion:
x + x+1 = 33
2x + 1 = 33
2x = 32
x = 16 (1st page)
x+1 = 16 (next page)
