What are to conecutive integers whose sum is 35?
Two conecutive integers whose sum is 35 can be found by dividing the number by 2. The nearest (higher and lower) integers to the quotient are the required integers.
For example, two consecutive integers which add up to 19:
19/2=9.5 The nearest integers are 9 and 10. 10+9 = 19, so the answer is correct.
To find two consecutive integers whose sum is 35, we can set up an equation. Let's call the first integer "x" and the second integer "x+1". The equation would be:
x + (x+1) = 35
Simplifying the equation:
2x + 1 = 35
Subtracting 1 from both sides:
2x = 34
Dividing both sides by 2:
x = 17
So, the first integer is 17. The second consecutive integer is 17 + 1 = 18.
Therefore, the two consecutive integers whose sum is 35 are 17 and 18.
