बेरीज

उत्तर

Let these numbers be A and A+ 1.

Then as per the question, A2 + (A+1)2 = 481 

⇒ A2 + A2 + 2A + 1 = 481

⇒ 2 A2 + 2A - 480 = 0

⇒ A2 + A - 240 = 0

⇒ A2 + 16 A - 15 A - 240 = 0

⇒ A (A + 16) - 15 (A + 16) = 0

⇒ (A - 15) (A + 16) = 0

⇒ A = 15 , -16 (-16 is not a natural number)

⇒ A=15 

⇒ Hence the numbers are 15 and 16.
