Answer:
To find a a fraction of a whole number, you multiply the numerator of the fraction by the given number and then divide the product by the denominator of the fraction
Solved example for finding a fraction of a whole number:
1)
Find 1/3 of 21.
To find 1/3 of 21, we multiply the numerator 1 by the given whole number 21 and then divide the product 21 by the denominator 3.
1/3 × 21 = 1 × 21/3 = 21/3 = 7
So, 1/3 of 21 = 7.
1/3 of 21 is 7
The answer is actually 3 and 4.
lies between the two consecutive numbers 3 and 4.
I hope this helped! :))
Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = the first integer
(x - 1)^2 = the second integer.
x^2 - (x - 1)^2 = ?
First, let's plug a number into our equation for x.
(2)^2 - (2 - 1)^2 = ?
4 - (1)^2 = ?
4 - 1 = 3
As we can see the difference is odd but it's also the sum of the two consecutive integers.
2 + 1 = 3.
This works for all numbers. Let's plug another number into our equation for x.
(4)^2 - (4 - 1)^2 = ?
16 - (3)^2 = ?
16 - 9 = 7
4 + 3 = 7
Try any number and it will always be odd.
