2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.
Your answer is 8, 9, & 10 8 * 9 = 72 10 * 10 = 100 100 - 72 = 28
Yes.
49+51=100 49 is the smaller number : P
In 100 numbers you can select 50 all odd or 50 all even and there will be no consecutive pair. Picking another number must be of the opposite parity and so consecutive with one of your first 50.
The two numbers can be thought of as: Smaller Odd Number = x + 1 (Add one to ensure it is an odd number) Larger Consecutive Odd Number = Smaller Number + 2 = x + 1 + 2 = x + 3 We know that Smaller Odd Number + Larger Consecutive Odd Number = 100 (X + 1) + (x + 3) = 100 2x + 4 = 100 2x = 96 x = 48 Smaller Odd Number = 48 + 1 = 49 The smaller odd number is 49. The next consecutive odd number of course is 51.
Any odd number of consecutive numbers in which the center number is 100 will have this property. The simplest example is 99, 100, 101.
numbers with patterns; consecutive numbers: 1,2,3,4... consecutive even numbers: 2,4,6,8... and many more Consecutive numbers are numbers that come one after another. For example 5, 6, 7 or 99 and 100.
2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.
The three numbers are 8, 9 and 10. 8 x 9 = 72 102 = 100 100 - 72 = 28
Your answer is 8, 9, & 10 8 * 9 = 72 10 * 10 = 100 100 - 72 = 28
Yes.
49+51=100 49 is the smaller number : P
Consecutive means following one another. E and F are consecutive, as are Tuesday and Wednesday and 100 and 101. The number 15 is NOT between any consecutive whole numbers. However, it is between the whole numbers 14 and 16 --- which of course are not consecutive.
In 100 numbers you can select 50 all odd or 50 all even and there will be no consecutive pair. Picking another number must be of the opposite parity and so consecutive with one of your first 50.
49 and 51
2 and 3 are the only consecutive numbers that are prime.
