Question

Two consecutive integers have a sum of 153. find the integers.

Answer 1

x = first integer
x + 1 = second consecutive integer

x + (x + 1) = 153..combine like terms
2x + 1 = 153
2x = 153 - 1
2x = 152
x = 152/2
x = 76

x + 1 = 76 + 1 = 77

so ur numbers are : 76 and 77...and u will find that when added equal 153.
