Question

The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 100. Find the integers.


2n + 2 = 100

n + 4 = 100

2n + 1 = 100

2n + 3 = 100

Answer 1

let n be the smaller of the two integers... the expression for the next consecutive integer is n+2....

Answer 2

2n + 2 = 100
2n + 2 - 2 = 100 - 2
2n = 98
\[n=\frac{ 98 }{ 2 }\]n = 49

Answer 3

2n+2=100?
