Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the odd consecutive integers = y , y + 2

Smaller number = y

Bigger number = y + 2

Sum of two consecutive odd integers = 216

y + y + 2 = 216

2y + 2 = 216

2y = 216 - 2

2y = 214

y = 214

2

y = 107

Smaller number = y = 107

Bigger number = y + 2 = 107 + 2 = 109

Check

107 + 109 = 216
