    Notice that in ur sequence, there is a common difference of 5 ... that means u add 5 to each number to get to the next number.

    so 2 consecutive terms would be : x and x + 5

    x + x + 5 = 503

    2x + 5 = 503

    2x = 503 - 5

    2x = 498

    x = 498/2

    x = 249

    x + 5 = 249 + 5 = 254

    so ur 2 numbers are : 249 and 254
