Question

the sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 56. find the numbers

Answer 1

Let the numbers be x and x + 2



A/q,


x + x + 2 = 56

2x + 2 = 56

2x = 56 - 2

2x = 54

x = $\frac{54}{2}$

x = 27



1st number => x => $\boxed{ \boxed{ \boxed{27}}}$


2nd number => x + 2 => 27 + 2 => $\boxed{ \boxed{ \boxed{29}}}$

Answer 2

Given : Sum of 2 consecutive odd numbers is 56 .

To Find : Those numbers

2x+2=56

2x=56-2 = 54

x= 54/2=27 .

The required numbers are = x = 27 , X+2 = 29 .
