Answer:

705

Explanation:

Set up are variables:

x a page number

x + 1 the page after x

Now can set up our equation

x + x + 1 = 1411

Now we combine like terms:

2x + 1 = 1411

2x = 1410

x = 705

x + 1 = 706

Check our work:

705 + 706 = 1411 works so we have the right numbers

706 would be the page join is on and 705 would be the page job is on
