Answer 2

Answer:

Q15. The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 124 .Find the bigger numbers .

Solution : let the first odd number = 2x+ 1

And second odd number = 2x + 3

According to question

2x + 1 + 2x + 3 = 124

4x + 4 = 124

4x = 124 - 4

4x = 120

X = 120/ 4

X = 30

Hence the first odd number = 2x30 + 1 = 60 + 1 = 61

Second odd number = 2 x 30 + 3 = 60 + 3 = 63
