integers are either 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6 or 4 and 5
Squares are 1 + 63, 4 + 49, 9 + 36 and 16 + 25
Only 4 + 49 sums to 53 so your answer is 2 and 7
spelling is correct
The numbers are 51, 53, 55 and 57.
53 and 55
The numbers are 26 and 27.
There are no such answers. The sum of even numbers is even. The sum of odd numbers could be even, but the sum of three consecutive odd numbers is always odd. One could swap the questions to get potentially answerable questions: Sum of 3 consecutive EVEN integers = 150 48 + 50 + 52 = 150 unfortunately, we can already see that if we were to make these odd integers (add 1 to each), we would get 153, not 151. Sum of 3 consecutive ODD integers = 151 49 + 51 + 53 = 153 47 + 49 + 51 = 147 We can see that, whenever we slide our three consecutive integers up one, we raise the value of the sum up 3, and if we jump from odd to odd, or even to even, we raise each integer by 2, so we raise the sum by 6.
The two consecutive integers that have a sum of 53 are 26 and 27.
The two consecutive integers that have a sum of -105 are -53 and -52.
The integers are 26 and 27.
26 and 27
-52 and -53
Divide the sum of the three consecutive odd integers by 3: 159/3 = 53. The smallest of these integers will be two less than 53 and the largest will be two more than 53, so the three consecutive odd integers will be 51, 53, and 55.
The numbers are -53 and -52.
53+54 = 107. Far too easy.
-52 + (-53) = -105
