Answer:
x = 53, x + 1 = 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive integers are two numbers that are after each other. (This is confusing wording, but hopefully this example helps):
Regular consecutive numbers: 1, 2, 3
Even consecutive numbers: 2, 4, 6
Since in this problem the numbers are not given you will use variables.
x + x + 1 = 107
Solve:
x + x + 1 = 107
2x + 1 = 107
-1 -1
----------------
2x = 106
--- -----
2 2
x = 53
x + 1
53 + 1 = 54
Hope this helped.
