I hope you understood!! :)

Answer 2

Answer:

9 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

20 = 9 + 11

Algebraic approach

let the 2 consecutive odd numbers be n and n + 2 , then

n + n + 2 = 20 , that is

2n + 2 = 20 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2n = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n = 9 and n + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11

The 2 numbers are 9 and 11
