The sum of two consecutive integers is 23. what are the integers?

Answer. THE TWO CONSECUTIVE INTEGERS WHOSE SUM IS 23 ARE 11 AND 12.

Let the consecutive integers be x and x+1.

Then,

x + (x + 1) = 23

=> x + x + 1 = 23

=> 2x + 1 = 23

=> 2x = 23 - 1

=> 2x = 22

=> x = 22/2

=> x = 11

So, the integers are:

x = 11

and x + 1 = 11 + 1 = 12

So, the consecutive integers are 11 and 12.
