The numbers : - 104 \frac{1}{2}, - 103 \frac{1}{2}

解答ステップ

Represent the numbers with

x

First number : x

Consecutive number : x + 1

A.T.Q.:

x + x + 1 = - 208

解く

x + x + 1 = - 208 : x = - \frac{209}{2}

x + 1 = - \frac{209}{2} + 1 = - \frac{207}{2}

仮分数を帯分数に変換する:

\frac{209}{2} = 104 \frac{1}{2}

仮分数を帯分数に変換する:

\frac{207}{2} = 103 \frac{1}{2}

The numbers : - 104 \frac{1}{2}, - 103 \frac{1}{2}
