Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another. For example, 2,3,4,5,etc.... are consecutive integers

So algebraically, consecutive integers follow the form x, x+1, x+2, etc...

Since the sum of two consecutive integers is 239, this means:

x%2Bx%2B1=239

2x%2B1=239 Combine like terms on the left side

2x=239-1Subtract 1 from both sides

2x=238 Combine like terms on the right side

x=%28238%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

x=119 Divide

So our first number is x=119

So to find the next number, simply add 1 to it to get 119%2B1=120

Answer: So our two page numbers are 119 and 120
