Yes it does, since 1 (an odd whole number) plus another 1 equals 2 (an even whole number).

So only 2 plus an odd whole number equals a consecutive odd whole number.

1 plus 2 equals 3.

3 plus 2 equals 5.

And so on.

The two numbers can be thought of as: Smaller Odd Number = x + 1 (Add one to ensure it is an odd number) Larger Consecutive Odd Number = Smaller Number + 2 = x + 1 + 2 = x + 3 We know that Smaller Odd Number + Larger Consecutive Odd Number = 100 (X + 1) + (x + 3) = 100 2x + 4 = 100 2x = 96 x = 48 Smaller Odd Number = 48 + 1 = 49 The smaller odd number is 49.
