    7 consecutive odd numbers ... x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8, x + 10, x + 12

    x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x + 10 + x + 12 = 91

    7x + 42 = 91

    7x = 91 - 42

    7x = 49

    x = 49/7

    x = 7

    x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9

    x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11

    x + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13

    x + 8 = 7 + 8 = 15

    x + 10 = 7 + 10 = 17

    x + 12 = 7 + 12 = 19

    the sum of the 2 largest numbers is : 17 + 19 = 36 <==
