Question

how many concecitive odd numbers will be added to get the sum equal to 24 divided by 3​

Answer 1

Given that,

Sum of consecutive odd numbers = 24/3

= 8

Let the consecutive odd numbers =(n, n+2)

By the problem :

( n+n+2 ) = (8)

( 2n+2 ) = (8)

( 2n ) = (8-2)

( 2n ) = (6)

( n ) = (6/2)

( n ) = (3)

Therefore (n) =(3) and (n+2) = (3+2) = (5)

{2 consecutive odd numbers needed to get 8}

They are: (3) and (5)
