Answer 2

$\LARGE \tt{{Given:-}}$

$\tt{{Sum \ of \ two \ consecutive \ odd \ numbers \ = \ 56}}$

$\LARGE \tt{{To \ Find \ :-}}$

• $\tt{{Numbers}}$

$\LARGE \tt{{Assumption \ :-}}$

$\tt{{Let \ the \ first \ odd \ number \ = x}}$

$\tt{{So,}}$

$\tt{{Second \ consecutive \ odd \ number \ = \ x \ + \ 2}}$

$\LARGE \tt{{Solution \ :-}}$

$\tt{{x + x + 2 = 56}}$

$\implies \tt{{2x + 2 = 56}}$

$\implies \tt{{2x = 56 - 2}}$

$\implies \tt{{2x = 54}}$

$\implies \tt{{x =}}$$\tt\dfrac{54}{2}$

$\tt{{x = 27}}$

$\tt{{Hence,}}$

$\tt{{The \ first \ odd \ number \ = x = 27}}$$\tt{{Second \ consecutive \ odd \ number \ = \ x \ + \ 2 = 27 + 2 = 29}}$

$\LARGE \tt{{Required \ Answer \ :-}}$

$\tt{{The \ numbers \ are \ 27 \ and \ 29}}$
