The two consecutive integers are #53# and #54#

Let's say #x# is the first number, the number that comes after #x# is certainly #x + 1# (definition of consecutive numbers)

#(x) +( x + 1) = 107#

#2x = 106#

#x = 53#

So,

#x + 1 = 53 + 1 = 54#

You can check it :

#53 + 54 = 107#

I hope you finally got it! Good luck :)
