Question

sum of two consecutive odd number is 29.find the numbers​

Answer 1

Question:-

sum of two consecutive odd number is 29.find the numbers

Answer:-

• The two numbers are 13.5 and 15.5

To find :-

• Two numbers

Solution:-

• First number = x
• Second number = x + 2
• Sum = 29

According to question,

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: x + x + 2 = 29}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: 2x + 2 = 29}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: 2x = 29 - 2}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: 2x = 27}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: x = \frac{27}{2} }$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: x = 13.5}$

• The value of x is 13.5.

• First number = 13.5
• Second number = x + 2 = 13.5 + 2 = 15.5

Hence,

The two numbers are 13.5 and 15.5

Answer 2

☆ Solution ☆

Given :-

• $\tt{Sum\: of \:two \:consecutive\: odd \:number \:is\: 29.}$

To Find :-

• $\tt{The\: number}$

Step-by-Step-Explaination

$\tt{Let\: first \:number\: be\: x }$

$\tt{Second\: number\: be \:x + 2}$

$\tt{According\: to\: the\: question}$

$\longrightarrow\tt{ x + x + 2 = 29}$

$\longrightarrow\tt{ 2x + 2 = 29 }$

$\longrightarrow\tt {2x = 29 - 2}$

$\longrightarrow \tt {2x = 27 }$

$\longrightarrow\tt{ x = \frac{27}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow\tt{ x = 13.5 }$

Hence,

$\tt{13.5\: is \:the \:value\: of\: x }$

Now,

$\tt{First \:number\: = 13.5 }$

$\tt{Second\: number\: = 13.5 + 2 = 15.5}$

Hence Solved !
