Define the consecutive odd numbers as:
\n" ); document.write( "x
\n" ); document.write( "x+2
\n" ); document.write( "x+4
\n" ); document.write( "x+6
\n" ); document.write( "x+8
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 20 = 70
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 50
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So the consecutive numbers are not odd, they are even.
\n" ); document.write( "10
\n" ); document.write( "12
\n" ); document.write( "14
\n" ); document.write( "16
\n" ); document.write( "18
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "70
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
