Question

Find two consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 104.

Answer 1

two consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 104

First number: x 
Second number: x+2 
Total: 104 

We take each "integer" and add them together: 
x+x+2=104 

Add like terms together and subtract two from both sides: 
2x=102 


Divide 2 from both sides: 
2x/2=102/2 
x=51 

Now we have the first integer, but we must find the other integer, we simply subtract 51 from 104: 
104-51=53 

The two consecutive odd integers that will add up to 104 are: 51 and 53. 

Answer: 51, 53

Answer 2

Let the First number be x.
& Second be x + 2.
x + x + 2 = 104.
2x + 2 = 104.
2x = 104-2 = 102.
x = 102/2
First Number = x = 51.
Second Number = x + 2 = 51 + 2 = 53.
