Question

the sum of two consecutive odd integers is 900. find the two integers

Answer 1

449 and 451

x = smaller integer
the difference between 2 consecutive odd integers is 2
x + x + 2 = 900
2x + 2     = 900
-2                 -2
2x           = 898
/2                 /2
x             = 449 

449 + 2 = 451 (greater integer)
