4 consecutive odd numbers....x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6
2(x + x + 2) = 3(x + 4 + x + 6) - 40
2(2x + 2) = 3(2x + 10) - 40
4x + 4 = 6x + 30 - 40
4x + 4 = 6x - 10
4x - 6x = -10 - 4
-2x = - 14
x = -14/-2
x = 7
x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11
x + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13
ur numbers are : 7,9,11,13 <==

The question is incomplete:
Ava makes bead necklaces. She has a total of 6048 beads. Each necklace has 24 beads. Her friend maria says that the greatest number of necklace she can make with the beads is 162. Marias. Work is shown here. Explain why Maria is incorrect and how she can find the correct answer.
Answer:
Maria is incorrect because when you divide the number of beads by the beads in each necklace, you find that she can make 252 necklaces.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the number of necklaces Avan can make by dividing the number of beads she has by the amount in each necklace:
6048/24=252
According to this, you can say that Maria is incorrect because when you divide the number of beads by the beads in each necklace, you find that she can make 252 necklaces.
Answer:
first get the total ratio; 2 + 5 = 7
so the fraction of blue marbles is 5/7
then assume the number of total marbles to be k
then use the expression;
5/7*k = 65
7*5/7 * k = 65*7
5k =455
5/5k = 455/5
k = 91
then calculate the number if red marbles from;
x = 2/7*91
x = 26
Therefore there are 26 red marbles.
