1. Let the two consecutive odd number be x+1 and x+3

   x+1 + x+3 = 36

   2x + 4 =36

   2x = 36–4

   2x = 32

   x = 32/2 = 16 cancel with 2 table

2. Answer:

   Let the two consecutive odd nos. be x and x+2

   Now according to question,

   x + x+2 = 36

   2x = 36-2

   x = 34/2

   x = 17

   So the two nos. are 17 and 19
