    Answer:

      8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the integer is n, half of it is n/2. The next integer is (n+1) and 1/3 of it is (n+1)/3. You want …

      n/2 – (n+1)/3 = 1

      n(1/2 -1/3) -1/3 = 1

      n/6 = 4/3 . . . . . . . . add 1/3, simplify

      n = 6(4/3) = 8

    The integer is 8.
