Suppose the first number is x.
Then the second number is x+1.
A fourth of the first number is x/4
A fifth of the second number is (x+1)/5
So the equation is x/4 = (x+1)/5 + 1
Multiplying though by 20: 5x = 4x + 4 + 20 = 4x + 24
Subtracting 4x from both sides: x = 24
They are called just that: "consecutive numbers".They are called just that: "consecutive numbers".They are called just that: "consecutive numbers".They are called just that: "consecutive numbers".
Consecutive whole numbers will have an odd sum. Consecutive odd numbers, or consecutive prime numbers, will be 29 and 31.
The numbers 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers. Are there other pairs of prime numbers which are consecutive numbers?
Let's call the first odd number x. Since the numbers are consecutive, the second odd number would be x + 2. The sum of the two numbers is 44, so the equation would be x + (x + 2) = 44. Solving this equation yields x = 21, which means the two consecutive odd numbers are 21 and 23.
There are no two consecutive odd numbers.
You can either do this by trial-and error, or solve the equation n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 48.
The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.
It is a mathematical statement, which can be converted to an equation and then solved.
numbers with patterns; consecutive numbers: 1,2,3,4... consecutive even numbers: 2,4,6,8... and many more Consecutive numbers are numbers that come one after another. For example 5, 6, 7 or 99 and 100.
2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.
You could say these are consecutive ODD numbers.
Defining "consecutive" as "following continuously in unbroken or logical sequence," it is possible to have many different types of consecutive things: consecutive days, months, odd numbers, even numbers, etc. The list you have is consecutive, they are consecutive multiples of ten.
