Answer: The correct option is
(B) n and n + 2.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the correct pair of expressions that could represent consecutive odd numbers.
Let n and m be two consecutive odd numbers.
We know that
the difference between two consecutive odd numbers is 2.
So, we must have
[tex]m-n=2\\\\\Rightarrow m=n+2.[/tex]
Therefore, if n is one odd number, then the next odd number is (n + 2).
Thus, n and n + 2 represents the pair of consecutive odd numbers.
(B) is the correct option.
