Answer:

The answer to your question is:  7 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

One number = n

one more than another = n + 1

Their sum           n + n + 1 = 15

                          2n = 15 - 1

                         2n = 14

                         n = 14/2

                         n = 7

                         n + 1 = 8
