Question:
A pair of consecutive integers has the property of 7 times the smaller is less than 6 times the greater. What are the greatest such integers?
Answer:
The greatest is 5 & 6
Explanation:
let x = the smaller integer
let x+1 = the larger integer
7x<6(x+1)
7x<6x+6
x<6
The largest integer that is less than 6 is 5
(x+1)
(5+1)
6
The greatest such integers are therefore 5 and 6
