Question

sum of two consecutive odd number is 68 find the no​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the smallest odd no be x therefore another consecutive odd no would be x+2 .

given sum of no is 68 ie

x+(x+2)=68

2x+2=68

2x=66

x=33

therefore two no are 33 and 35

Answer 2

Let 2 consecutive odd numbers be

1st=(2x+7)                                 1st no=2x+1                                          

2nd=(2x+3)                               (2x*16)+1

(2x+1)+(2x+3)=68                     32+1=33

2x+1+2x+3=68                          2nd no=2x+3

2x+2x+1+3=68                          (2*16)+3

4x+4=68                                    32+3=35

4x=68-4

4x=64

X=64/4

X=16

                               Answer- 2 consecutive nos are 33,35
