The two consecutive integers can be represented by x and x+1.

x+(x+1)=71

Combine like terms
2x+1=71

Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=70

Divide both sides by 2
x=35

Final answer: 35, 36

Katen [24]

<u>At Hayden's:</u>

$(25+3)= \ 28+3 \ (2nd \ hour)=31+3 \ (3rd \ hour)=34+3 . . . \swarrow\swarrow \\ \ \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \Longrightarrow \boxed{34+3=37}= \ (4rth \ Hour)$

<u>At Austins:</u>

$(5+8)= \ (first \ hour) = 13+8= \ 21 = (2nd \ hour) \ 21+8=29= \ \swarrow \\ \longrightarrow \ 29=(3rd \ hour)=\boxed{ 29+8= (37)= \ ((Forth \ hour))}$

As we can see in both results, it would take them (4 hours) for the prices to be equaled.
