The answer is 79 and 80.
x - the number of the first locker
x + 1 - the number of the consecutive locker
Their sum is 159.
x + x + 1 = 159
2x + 1 = 159
2x = 159 - 1
2x = 158
x = 158 / 2
x = 79
x - the number of the first locker: x = 79
x + 1 - the number of the consecutive locker x + 1 = 79 + 1 = 80
X-20 = Y+20........ X-Y = 20+20........
X-Y = 40
AND
2Y-44=X+22............. Y-X= 44+22
Y-X=66
NOW, LET'S FIND X AND Y FROM THESE TWO EQUATIONS....
X-Y =40
Y-X= 66
IF WE COLLECT ....... 2Y = 106 AND Y = 53
THEN, USE Y IN ANY EQUATIONS FOR FINDING X
X-53 = 40 ..... X= 53+40 .......... X= 93
X= 93
Y=53
2/3 and 8/12 are proportional but 3/14 and 8/28 aren’t
