The easiest way to do this is to use 'n' as one integer. Now, the next one needs to be consecutive, so we can make the second integer 'n+1'
n + (n+1) = 55
Now all we do is start simplifying
2n + 1 = 55
2n = 55 -1
2n = 54
n = 27
Since n = 27, the first integer will be 27.
And we stated that the second is 'n+1', so the second would be 28.
Double check,
27 + 28 = 55
So, our integers are 27 and 28.

The integers are 20 and 22.
What are two consecutive even integers whose sum is 126?
63+83=126.... hope it helps!
What are two consecutive integers that have the sum of 238?
There are two consecutive even integers. The numbers are 118 and 120.
What are two consecutive integers whose product is 421?
There are no two consecutive integers whose product is 421 - the product of 20 and 21 is 420.
The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 156 what is the larger integers?
Divide the sum of the two consecutive odd integers by 2: 156/2=78. The two consecutive odd integers will be one more and one less than 78, so the smaller will be 77 and the larger will be 79.
