There are no two such consecutive 'integers'!!

Proof: Let the first integer be x.

So, the next consecutive integer is x+1.

Now, as per the question : x + (x+1) = 24

=> 2x=23 (After taking all constants on one side and variable terms on the other).

=> x=(23/2) = 11.5

So, 11.5 & 12.5 are the required numbers but they are not integers !
