Step-by-step explanation:

heyya, here's ur ans...glad to help!!!

WKT,

Odd numbers are in the form of 2n + 1.

where is 2n is an even number.

also, 2 number after the odd number number we've taken we get its consecutive odd number i.e., 2n + 1 + 2 = 2n +3.

2n + 1 + 2n + 3 = 4n + 4 = 4(n+1) = 56

n + 1 = 14

n = 13

THE TWO NUMBERS WILL BE 2(13) + 1 = 27

AND THE NUMBER U WANTED, THE BIGGER NUMBER = 2(13) + 3 = 29
