Question

Find four consecutive odd integers if the product of the two smaller integers is 112 less than the product of the two larger integers.

Answer 1

Answer: 11, 13, 15, 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the four numbers as: x, x+2, x+4, and x+6

(x)(x+2) = (x+4)(x+6) - 112

x² + 2x = x² + 10x -88

-8x = -88

x = 11
