Two consecutive odd numbers are such that the difference of twice the larger number and twice the smaller number is 21. Find the product of the numbers
------------------
Twice the odd numbers gives 2 even numbers.
The difference is an even number, cannot be 21.
No solution.

It should be easy to see that the problem is nonsense....
The difference between consecutive odd numbers is 2.
The difference between twice the larger and twice the smaller is equal to twice the difference between the two.
Twice 2 is 4; it will never be 21.
