Question

the sum of two consecutive odd number is 56 find the number​

Answer 1

Let one no. be x

Thus, the other no. will be (x+2)

According to the question,

x +  (x+2)  =  56

x + x + 2   = 56

2x   =   56  -  2

2x   =   54

x     =  54/2   =  27  Ans.

Answer 2

Answer:

let 1st consecutive number is x

let 2nd consecutive number is x+1

According to question

x+x+1 = 56

2x+1=56

2x=56-1

2x=54

x=54/2

x=27

let consecutive number is 27

so 2nd number is 27+1 = 28
