Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Let consecutive odd natural numbers be x, x+2

→ According to the question,

→ x²+(x+2)²=8(x+x+2)+2

→ x²+x²+4+4x=16x+16+2

→ 2x²+4x-16x=18-4

→ 2x²-12x-14=0

→ x²-6x-7=0

→ x²-7x+x-7=0

→ x(x-7)+1(x-7)=0

→ Now value of x=7

→ The two consecutive odd natural numbers are 7,9
