If two consecutive numbers

add up to 8815, what are the

numbers?

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

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.
