Question

The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 39. Find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the two consecutive odd numbers be

x+1 and x+3

so when we add both numbers

x+1+x+3=39

2x+ 4 =39

2x = 39-4

2x = 35

x= 35/2

x = 17.5

two numbers are

x+1 = 17.5+1= 18.5

x+3= 17.5+3= 20.5

I guess these are the answers
