answer : 4407,4408
because 8815/2 = 4407.5 so you take away the .5 to find one number and you add .5 for the other
Answer:
4407 and 4408
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Call one of the numbers x, and the other x + 1 (because a consecutive number is one that follows another).
2. Equal the sum of those two numbers to 8815, solve for x.
x + x + 1 = 8815
Combine like terms.
2x + 1 = 8815
Subtract 1 from both sides.
2x = 8814
Divide both sides by 2
x = 4407
3. If x = 4407, then x + 1 = 4408.
