Let the first odd number be x.Then, the other odd number would be x + 2.∴ x(x+2) = 6723= x2 + 2x = 6723= x2 + 2x = 6723= x2 + 2x - 6723 = 0= x2 + 83 - 81 x - 6723 = 0= x(x+83) - 81 (x + 83) = 0= (x + 83) (x - 81) = 0= (x + 83) (x - 81) = 0= x - 81 = 0∴ x = 81Hence, greater number = x + 2 = 81 + 2 = 83
