Answer:

61 and 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent 2 consecutive unknown numbers:

x, x + 1

When they are added, the result is 123

Add

x + x + 1 = 123

2x + 1 = 123

Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

2x = 122

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

x = 61

x + 1 = 62

61 and 62

Hope this helps :)
