Call the consecutive odd integers $\"n\"$ and $\"n+%2B+2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6%2A%28n+%2B+2%29+-+2n+=+152\"$
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6n+%2B+12+-+2n+=+152\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4n+=+152+-+12\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4n+=+140\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n+=+35\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n+%2B+2+=+37\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The integers are 35 and 37 \n" ); document.write( "
