What is the difference between two consecutive odd numbers?
Answer:
2
We know that the numbers that have 1,3,5,7,9 at their ones place are called the odd numbers.
Also, consecutive numbers are the numbers that follow each other, without gaps.
So, odd consecutive numbers are the odd numbers that follow each other, without gaps.
- Hence, we see that 1,3,5,7,9 are odd consecutive numbers.
Let us now find the difference between them:
3 - 1 = 2 , 5 - 3 = 2, 7 - 5 = 2 ………and so on.- Hence, the difference between any two consecutive odd numbers is 2.
