Question

The sum of four consecutive odd number is 211,what are the numbers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first odd consecutive number be x.

Thus, the other consecutive numbers are x+2, x+4, x+6

The sum of the 4 consecutive number is 211.

x+x+2+x+4+x+6 = 211

=> 4x+12 = 40

=> 4x = 40 - 12

= 28

x = 28/4

= 7

Therefore, the four consecutive odd numbers are

x = 7,

x+2 = 7+2 = 9,

x+4 = 7+4 = 11,

x+6 = 7+6 = 13.
