question about consecutive numbers

by niraj_a » Sat Dec 13, 2008 7:12 am
for gmat purposes, do consecutive numbers always comprise more than 1 number? i.e. 0 and 1 is consecutive, but just 0 is not?

Hi. A consecutive number does not exist. A number (or anything, for that matter) has to be consecutive with something else.

Niraj,

1 consectutive integer is possible.

If the problem reads k consectutive integers unless it is stated k>1 we dont know The set could be {0} or {1} etc...
