Let the two odd numbers be n and n+2, then :
2(n + 2) + 13 = 3n
2n + 4 + 13 = 3n
n = 17
The smaller of the two odd numbers is 17 and the larger number is 19.

Two consecutive even integers such that four times the greater added to the lesser is 98?
Call the unknown higher integer h. Then, from the problem statement, 4h + (h-2) = 98; 5h = 100; h = 20. Thus the two integers are 18 and 20.
What two consecutive even integers such that three times the lesser integer added to the larger integer is 58.?
Let the smaller integer be x, then then larger integer is x + 2, and: 3x + (x + 2) = 58 → 4x = 56 → x = 14 → The two integers are 14 and 16.
How do you find the distance between two integers using the difference?
The difference (greater minus lesser) is the distance between them.
Twice the greater of two consecutive odd integers is 13 less than three times the lesser Find the integers?
The representation of an odd integer is 2n + 1. So the other consecutive odd integer will be 2n + 3,[(2n + 1) + 2]. Thus, we have:2(2n + 3) + 13 = 3(2n + 1)4n + 6 + 13 = 6n + 3 subtract 4n and 3 to both sides16 = 2n divide by 2 to both sides8 = n2n + 1 = 2(8) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 172n + 3 = 2(8) + 3 = 16 + 3 = 19Therefore, theses numbers are 17 an 19.Check:3(17) - 2(19) = 13 ?51 - 38 = 13?13 = 13 True
Is 5.1 greater or lesser than 5.01?
5.1 is greater than 5.01
What are the two integers if the lesser of two consecutive odd integers is doubled the result is 7 more than the greater integer?
The integers are the sqare root of 121 and 81 to the 2/4 power.
What two consecutive integers that the lesser added to two times the greater gives a sum of 22?
6 and 8
When the lesser of two consecutive integers is added to three times the greater the result is 43 Find the integers?
Let the two integers be m-1 & m, so the lesser integer is m-1, and the greater integer is m:(m-1) + 3*m = 43 --> 4*m -1 = 43 --> 4*m = 44, m = 11 & m-1 = 10, so 10 & 11Check: 11 times 3 is 33, add 10 is 43
Two consecutive even integers such that four times the greater added to the lesser is 98?
Call the unknown higher integer h. Then, from the problem statement, 4h + (h-2) = 98; 5h = 100; h = 20. Thus the two integers are 18 and 20.
Tripling the greater of two consecutive even integers gives the same result as subtracting 10 from the lesser even integer What are the integers?
3(n + 2) = n - 10 3n + 6 = n - 10 2n + 6 = -10 2n = -16 n = -8 -8 and -6
Is a integer that is bigger farther from the zero than a smaller integer?
Not exactly. All positive integers are greater than all negative integers, but -1 is greater than -7 even though -7 is farther from zero. It's better to think of a number line. Things get greater as you move to the right, lesser as you move to the left.
What two consecutive even integers such that three times the lesser integer added to the larger integer is 58.?
Let the smaller integer be x, then then larger integer is x + 2, and: 3x + (x + 2) = 58 → 4x = 56 → x = 14 → The two integers are 14 and 16.
Find two consecutive even integers such that the lesser added to three times the greater gives a sum of 46?
The two integers you are looking for would be 10 and 12. 12X3=36 therefore 10+(12X3)=46. Voila.
When a lesser integer is divided by a greater integer what will the quotient be?
The quotient will be less than one.
What could be a problem solved for subtracting a lesser integer number from a greater integer that will give you a negative or zero?
It can't be done!
One integer is four times another The sum of the integers is 5 What is the value of the lesser integer?
Let's denote the unknown integer as "x". So now we have two integers, "x" and "4x" because one integer is 4 times the other. So the sum of x+4x= 5x 5x = 5 So x=1
