Question

What are those The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 56. Find the numbers. ​

Answer 1

Here it is given that the sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 56

We have to find the two numbers

Now, if we assume the first number to be x

The, its consecutive odd number will be x + 2

So, x + x +2 = 56

           2x + 2 = 56

                  2x = 56 - 2

                  2x = 54

                    x = 54/2

                   x = 27

So, x + 2 = 27 + 2

              = 29

Hence, the two odd numbers will be 27 and 29
