Answer:

70 and 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

x is the first number

x+1 is the next number

x+ x+1 = 141

Combine like terms

2x+1 =141

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1=141-1

2x= 140

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =140/2

x = 70

The two lockers are 70,71

Answer:

70 and 71

Let the two consecutive numbers be: x and x+1

x + x+1 = 141

2x + 1 = 141

2x = 140

x = 70

The sum of two consecutive integers is 123 what’s is the smallest of the two integers
RideAnS [48]

The smallest of two integers is 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller integer

Then the next integer will be:

x+1

According to given statement that the sum of both is 123

x+ (x+1) = 123\\x+x+1=123\\2x+1=123

Subtracting 1 from both sides

2x+1-1=123-1\\2x=122

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{122}{2}\\x=61

The smallest of two integers is 61
