Consecutive Integers

by goelmohit2002 Sat Oct 03, 2009 11:34 am

Hi All,

Can someone please tell what all are the consecutive integers of 3 ?

a) only 2
b) only 4
c) or both 2 and 4.

if C, then does it mean that consecutive mean we need to see in both the directions ?

Thanks
Mohit

I'm not sure what you're asking. You're not typically asked: "what are the numbers consecutive to 3?" You would describe a group of integers to be consecutive. Any of the following are consecutive:
2 and 3
3 and 4
2, 3, and 4
3, 4, and 5

Hope that helps.
