Answer: n/2, n/2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive numbers are always 1 more than the previous (n, n+1, n+2, n+...), and their sums are (like) n+n+1 or 2n+1 (n is the first number).

So in this situation (x is the first number);

n+1=x+x+1

n=x+x, n=2x

n/2=x

Meaning that the first number is n/2, and the second (n/2)+1 or just n/2+1.

I'm bad at explaining.
