The sum of two consecutive numbers is n+1. What are the numbers?
Number A: n
Number B: (n-1)
---------------------------
Let's search for the value of (n) to find the number A and B...
\(n+\left( n-1 \right) =n+1\\ \\ n+n-1=n+1\\ \\ 2n-1=n+1\\ \\ 2n-n=2\\ \\ n=2\)
If n=2,
Number A = 2
Number B = 1
The two consecutive numbers are 1 and 2.
