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.
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.
