Question

Find two consecutive odd integers such that 28 more than the lesser is three times the greater.

Answer 1

Answer:

lesser odd integer =11

Greater odd integer=13

Step-by-step explanation:

let the consecutive odd integers be x,x+2

and  x<x+2

3(x+2)=x+28

3x+6=x+28

3x-x=28-6

2x=22

x=11

x+2=11+3=13
