Question

the sum of two consecutive odd numbers is always divisible by 4. verify this statement with the help of some examples.​

Answer 1

$\huge\boxed{Answer}$

Let the two consecutive odd no. ar x & (x+2)

Sum of these two odd numbers

= (2x + 2)

Now (2x + 2)/4

(x + 1)/2

As 1 & 3

= (1 + 3)/4

= 4/4

= 1

As 3 & 5

= (3 + 5)/4

= 8/4

= 2

Thus , the Sum of two consecutive

odd numbers is always divisible

by 4 .

Answer 2

Answer:

3+ 5 = 8 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify this statement with the help of some examples. The sum of any two consecutive numbers is always odd, and the sum of two consecutive odd numbers is always divisible by 4. 3+ 5 = 8 and 8 is divisible by 4. 5 + 7 = 12 and 12 is divisible by 4.
