Solution

Let the first odd integer be x.

Now, the second consecutive number will be (x + 1).

It's given that the sum of the integers = 11.

So, we can write:

x + (x + 1) = 11

So, now we can simplify and solve the equation.

→ x + x + 1 = 11

→ 2x + 1 = 11

→ 2x = 11 - 1

→ 2x = 10

→ x = 10/2

→ x = 5

Hence, the numbers are:

First number:

x = 5

Second number:

x + 1

= 5 + 1

= 6

Then, the numbers are: 5 and 6.
