If n is the sum of two consecutively odd integers and less than 100, what is the greatest possibility of n? a..98 b..94 c.. 96 d….99

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 96

Parth (parthkohli):

\[\rm n = 47 +49\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just solve it by 2n+1 and 2n+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes..that's right..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can also go with 2k-1 and 2k+1...its rather simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeh

Parth (parthkohli):

\[\begin{align}\rm 2n + 1 + 2n + 3&<100 \\ \rm n&<24 \end{align}\]So, \(2n + 1 <49\) and \(2n + 3 <51\)
