Question

The sum of two consecutive numbers is 93. What are the numbers 2.

Answer 1

Hint – In order to solve this problem you need to know that consecutive numbers are the number just after the number. For example 10, 11. Assume a variable as a number.

Complete step-by-step answer:

Let the 1st number be x then the other number will be x + 1. As the numbers are consecutive.

It is given that the sum of two consecutive numbers is 93.
So we do,

$x+x+1=93$

$2x=92$
So, $x=46$

And x + 1 = 46 + 1 = 47

So, the numbers are 46, 47.

Note – When you have to solve this problem then you should know about consecutive numbers. Consecutive itself means one after the other. Then assuming variables and solving you will get the right answer.
