Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

23 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The method I use to do these sort of problems is that I divide the number by 2. In this case, 47 ÷ 2 is 23.5.

Now the two whole numbers less than 23.5 and greater than 23.5 are the consecutive numbers that add up to 47.

You can check by adding 23 + 24 which equals 47.
