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.

(3x+6) - x = 56

2x + 6 = 56

2x = 50

x = 25

x + 2 = 27(ans)

Consecutive odd numbers: bigger number - smaller number = 2

Let x be the smaller odd number

3(x+2)-x=56

3x+6-x=56

2x+6=56

2x=56-6

=50

x=50/2

=25

25+2=27 (bigger odd number)

Answer: 25, 27
