Answer:

Explanation:

If their numbers are consecutive, then that means that their numbers follow each other continuously in order. (Ex: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on.)

31 + 32 = 63

If Betsy has the smaller roll number, that would mean that she rolled the 31, leaving Bill with the 32.

So, Bill's roll number is 32.
