Let us assume the first integer to be = x
Then
The second integer will be = x + 1
The sum of the two consecutive integers =185
Then
x + x + 1 = 185
2x + 1 = 185
2x = 184
x = 92
From the above deduction, we can easily conclude that the smallest of the two integers is 92. I hope that the answer has helped you.
