Two consecutive integers whose sum is 582.
A. x + (x + 1) = 582
B. x + 2 = 582
C. x + (x + 2) = 582

Answer 1

A) sum of the two consecutive integers are x + (x+1) = 582

Explanation:

Explanation:-

consecutive numbers are numbers that follow each other in order.

They have a difference between every two numbers.

Example:- 12, 13, 14, 15...

Example:- 22,24,26, 28 .....are consecutive even numbers

let 'x' be the number and next number is 'x+1' so the two consecutive numbers are x , x+1

sum of two consecutive numbers are x+ (x+1) = 582
