Question

The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 604 find the numbers

Answer 1

301 and 303

Explanation:

let the two consecutive odd numbers by x and x+2.

Their sum is 604, so we can write:

x + x+2 = 604

2x + 2 = 604

2x = 602

x = 301

x+2 = 303

The two consecutive odd numbers that add to 604 are 301 and 303.
