    So adding on to the comment, we have;

    (a) + (a + 1) = - 195

    Which then becomes:

    2a + 1 = -195

    Subtracting 1 on both sides

    2a = - 196

    Dividing both sides by 2:

    a = - 98.

    Therefore, the two consecutive integers are - 98 and - 97.

    Just to make sure, test it out!
