2. What are they asking? Define Unknowns and variables
3. What operations do you have? Key concepts and operations
4. Set up the problem.Draw figure if necessary..
1. Find two consecutive integers whosesum is 45
2. Two consecutive integers are needed.1st integer (a) and 2nd integer (a +1).
3. two consecutive integers, sum (+), is(=), 45
4.1st integer + 2nd integer = 45
two consecutive integerssum 45is
two consecutive integers sumis 45
a + (a + 1) = 45
Two consecutive integers
5. Solve the equation
7. Check your answerCheck your answer
6. Verify that you answered the question Verify that you answered the question correctly. correctly.

6. Solving for two consecutive integers so one Solving for two consecutive integers so one more integer is needed.more integer is needed.a = 22a = 22 2nd integer = a + 1
2nd integer = 22 + 12nd integer = 23
1st integer = 22 & 2nd integer = 23
45 = 45
☺
22 + 23 ? 45
a + (a + 1) = 45

1. Find three consecutive even integerswhose sum is 72
2. three consecutive even integers are needed.1st even integer (a), 2nd even integer (a +2), 3rd integer (a + 4)

6. Solving for two consecutive integers so one Solving for two consecutive integers so one more integer is needed.more integer is needed.a = 22a = 22 2nd even integer = a + 2
2nd even integer = 22 + 22nd even integer = 24
1st even integer = 22, 2nd even integer = 24, 3rd even integer = 26
72 = 72
☺
22 + 24 + 26 ? 72
a + (a + 2) + (a + 4) = 72
3rd even integer = a + 43rd even integer = 22 + 43rd even integer = 26
