Bob thought of an even and odd number, multiplies the numbers together, added 6, divided by 5, and subtracted 3 to give an answer of 1. What was the odd number he started with?

Respuesta :

sqdancefan

Answer:

  7

Step-by-step explanation:

Working backward, we can find Bob's initial product.

We subtracted 3 to get 1, so we had 4.

We divided by 5 to get 4, so we had 20.

We added 6 to get 20, so we had 14

After Bob multiplied the two numbers together, he had 14. We know that 14 is the product of 2 and 7. The odd number is 7.
