Let the two odd consecutive integers be: x, (x+2)\r

\n" ); document.write( "\"twice the greater of two consecutive odd integers is 13 less than three times the lesser number.\"
\n" ); document.write( "2(x+2) = 3x - 13
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 4 = 3x - 13
\n" ); document.write( "4 + 13 = 3x - 2x
\n" ); document.write( "17 = x
