Using consecutive odd integers and editing "11 times more" to "11 more":
(Using original wording, there is no solution)
x=smaller integer; x+2=larger integer
x+(x+2)=3(x+2)-11
2x+2=3x+6-11 Add 5 to each side.
2x+7=3x Subtract 2x from each side.
7=x ANSWER : The smaller integer is 7
x+2=7+2=9 ANSWER 2: The larger integer is 9
