Answer :
[tex]n+n+1=117\\
2n=116\\
n=58\\
n+1=59[/tex]
These numbers are 58 and 59.
These numbers are 58 and 59.
So,
x + y = 117
y = x + 1
x + x + 1 = 117

2x + 1 = 117
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x = 116
Divide both sides by 2
x = 58
y = x + 1
y = 58 + 1
y = 59
The 2 consecutive integers are 58 and 59.
x + y = 117
