Let x represent one of the numbers and x+1, the next consecutive number. Set up the equation and solve:
x + x + 1 = 213 (next simplify)
2x + 1 = 213 (next subtract 1 from each side of the equation)
2x = 212 (next divide both sides by 2 to solve for x)
x = 106 (this is the first number, the next consecutive number is 107 {x+1})
106 + 107 = 213 (solution proved)

What are the two consecutive numbers whose sum is 425?
They are: 212 plus 213 = 425
What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 35?
There are no four consecutive whole numbers that add up to 35. The sum of two consecutive [whole] numbers is an even number plus an odd number which is an odd number. The sum of two consecutive numbers and the two next consecutive numbers is the sum of two odd numbers which is even, but 35 is odd, so no four consecutive whole numbers cannot add up to 35.
What two consecutive numbers add to 257?
The consecutive numbers that have a sum of 257 are 128 and 129.
What two consecutive numbers add up to 60?
Consecutive whole numbers will have an odd sum. Consecutive odd numbers, or consecutive prime numbers, will be 29 and 31.
What two concecutive numbers add upto 650?
Two consecutive numbers (pressumably integers) will always add up to an odd number, so this has no solution. If you mean "two consecutive even numbers" or "two consecutive odd numbers", you should quickly be able to find a solution by trial-and-error.
