Two odd integers, n, n+2
\n" ); document.write( "The difference of five times an odd integer and three times the next consecutive odd integer is 24.
\n" ); document.write( "5n - 3(n+2) = 24
\n" ); document.write( "5n - 3n - 6 = 24
\n" ); document.write( "2n = 24 + 6
\n" ); document.write( "2n = 30
\n" ); document.write( "n = 30/2
\n" ); document.write( "n = 15 is the 1st odd integer
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "What is the sum of the two odd integers?
\n" ); document.write( "15 + 17 = 32
\n" ); document.write( "
