The equation for this problem would be x + (x + 2) = 56.After combining the two x's, we get 2x + 2 = 56, then 2x = 54, which brings us to find that x = 27. So, 27 is the first odd integer. Since it is two consecutive odd integers, we need to add 2 to 27, giving us 29. Thus, the two consecutive odd integers whose sum is 56 are 27 and 29.
