Question 122891
Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another. For example, 2,3,4,5,etc.... are consecutive integers


So algebraically, consecutive integers follow the form x, x+1, x+2, etc...




Since the sum of two consecutive integers is 239, this means:


{{{x+x+1=239}}}





{{{2x+1=239}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{2x=239-1}}}Subtract 1 from both sides



{{{2x=238}}} Combine like terms on the right side



{{{x=(238)/(2)}}} Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x




{{{x=119}}} Divide


So our first number is {{{x=119}}} 



So to find the next number, simply add 1 to it to get {{{119+1=120}}}



So the next number is {{{x+1=120}}}
