Question

The sum of the two consecutive odd numbers is 394. Find the numbers

Answer 1

Solution

Given :-

• The sum of the two consecutive odd numbers is 394

Find :-

• These two Number

Explanation

Let, Two consecutive odd Number be

• first Number = (2x+1)
• Second Number = (2x+3)

A/C to question,

==> ( 2x+1)+(2x+3) = 394

==> 4x + 4 = 394

==> 4x = 394 - 4

==> 4x = 390

==>x = 390/4

==>x = 97.5

Hence

• First Number will be (2x+1) = (2*97.5+1) = 196
• Second Number will be (2x+3) = (2*97.5+3) = 198

Answer 2

$\sf\large{\underline{\underline{\red{Question:-}}}}$

The sum of the two consecutive odd numbers is 394. Find the numbers.

$\sf\large{\underline{\underline{\green{Given:-}}}}$

• Sum of 2 consecutive odd number is = 394

$\sf\large{\underline{\underline{\red{To\:Find:-}}}}$

• The number are=?

$\sf\large{\underline{\underline{\green{Solution:-}}}}$

Let,

• the 1st consecutive odd number be = (2x+1)
• the 2nd consecutive odd number be =(2x+3)

According to question :-

$\sf→ (2x+1)+(2x+3=394\\\sf→ 4x+4=394\\\sf→ 4x=394-4\\\sf→ 4x=390\\\sf→ x=\frac{390}{4}\\\sf→{\fbox{\red{\underline{x=97.5}}}}$

Now,

Putting x=97.5 in the considered number.

Then the numbers are :-

• 2x+1= 2×97.5+1= 196
• 2x+1= 2×97.5+1= 198
