Question

The units in Shante's apartment complex are consecutively numbered on each floor. The sum of her number and her next

Answer 1

Answer:

222

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number on Shante's doors. The units in Shante's apartment complex are consecutively numbered on each floor, so the number on next door is x+1.

The sum of these numbers is 443, then

$x+(x+1)=443\\ \\x+x+1=443\\ \\2x+1=443\\ \\2x=443-1\\ \\2x=442\\ \\x=221\\ \\x+1=221+1=222$

The larger of two numbers is 222.
