Answer 2

Given,

Sum of two consecutive odd numbers = 84

Let the two consecutive odd numbers be x  and  x+2

So,

x + (x+2) = 84

⇒ 2x + 2 = 84

⇒ 2x = 84 - 2

⇒ x = 82/2

$\boxed{\bold{\therefore x = 41}}$

If x = 41,

Then x+2 = 41+2 = 43

$\boxed{\bold{\therefore x+2 = 43}}$

So,

The consecutive odd numbers are 41 and 43.
