Answer:

1st number = 17

2nd number = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Unknown number = x

Since they are consecutive numbers, we add 1 to each other.

=> x + x + 1 = 35

=> 2x + 1 = 35

=> 2x + 1 - 1 = 35 - 1

=> 2x = 34

=> 2x/2 = 34/2

=> x = 17

So, the first number = x = 17

=> Second number = x + 1 = 17 + 1 = 18

1st number = 17

2nd number = 18
