Solution

Let's assume a quadratic equation where the co-efficient of x is an odd number:
x25x+6=0

Now, we have to find the roots of the equation x25x+6=0


x25x+6
Splitting the middle term:
x22x3x+6=x(x2)3(x2)






(x2)(x3)=0(x2)=0or(x3)=0x=2,3

So the roots of the equation are 2 and 3

i hope this clears your doubt.
