----------------------------------------------
The sum of four consecutive odd integers is greater than 24.Determine the first four in
tegers.
----------------------------------------------
A little unclear - maybe say equal to 26, because it is even and is "greater than 24" ?


--------------------------------------------------------
The sum of four consecutive odd numbers is 120.If x represents the smallest of the odd number,determine the four numbers.
----------------------------------------------------------

x, x+2, x+4, x+6 the numbers.
x%2Bx%2B2%2Bx%2B4%2Bx%2B6=120
4x=120-12
x=30-3
x=27

The numbers are 27, 29, 31, 33.
