Question

find two consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 500​

Answer 1

Answer:

let,

first consecutive odd number =k+1

second consecutive odd number=k+3

sum of the odd consecutive numbers is 500

As per sum

k+1+k+3=500

2k=496

k=496/2=248

hence,

first consecutive odd number=k+1=248+1=249

second consecutive odd number=k+3=248+3=251
