Answer the following Question with clear working

# data[].attributes.body
Find 2 consecutive ODD numbers such that when the smaller number is subtracted from 3 times the bigger number, the result is 56.

Let x be the smaller ODD odd number.

Define the next number.

Form the equation.

Solve for x,

and write down both numbers.

# data[].attributes.body
[3(x+2)] - x = 56

3x + 6 - x = 56

2x + 6 = 56

2x = 56 - 6

2x = 50

x = 25

ANSWER:

Smaller number (x) = 25

Larger number (x + 2) = 27

# data[].attributes.body
3(x+2)-x=56

3x+6-x=56

2x=50

x=25

smaller number = 25

bigger number = (25+2) = 27

# data[].attributes.body
3(x+2)-x=56

3x+6-x=56

2x+6=56

2x=50

x=50/2

x=25

bigger number = 25 +2

=27

smaller number = 25

bigger number = 27

# data[].attributes.body
3(x+2)-x=56

2x=50

x=25

bigger number = 25+2=27

smaller=25

# data[].attributes.body
3(x + 2) - x = 56

3x = 50

x = 25

Larger no. = 25 + 2 = 27

Smaller no. = 25
