Let x, x + 1 two consecutive integers;
We have x + x + 1 = 185;
2x + 1 = 185;
2x = 184;
x = 92; x + 1 = 93;
92 < 93;
92 is the smaller of the two integers.

The smaller integer of the two consecutive numbers is 92.

Let the smaller number be represented by x

Let the bigger number be represented by x+1

Therefore, to know the value of the integers will be:

x + x + 1 = 185

2x + 1 = 185

2x = 185 - 1

2x = 184

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 184/2

x = 92

Therefore, the smaller integer is 92 and the bigger number will be 93.
