Step-by-step explanation:
- If you divide 104 by 4, you get 26 as an average. If there is an answer to this problem, it means that two of the consecutive odd numbers are below 26 and two are above 26. The sequence of consecutive odd numbers that satisfies these requirements is: 23, 25, 27, and 29; and they add up to 104. The largest, obviously, is 29.
- Let:
- X - first odd number
- X + 2 - second odd number
- X + 4 - third odd number
- X + 6 - fourth odd number
- We are looking the largest number among the four consecutive numbers that totaled to 104.
- SOLUTION:
- X + (X + 2) + (X + 4) + (X + 6) = 104
- 4X + 12 = 104
- 4X = 104 - 12
- 4X = 92
- X = 92/4
- X = 23
- BY SUBSTITUTION:
- X + (X + 2) + (X + 4) + (X + 6) = 104
- 23 + (23 + 2) + (23 + 4) + (23 + 6) = 104
- 25 + 25 + 27 + 29 = 104
- So, therefore, the four consecutive odd numbers are: 23, 25, 27, and 29 and the largest among them is number 29.
