Yes.
Let the two consecutive odd numbers be (2n - 1) and (2n + 1) for all values of integer n (ie n ∈ ℤ)
Then their sum is:
sum = (2n - 1) + (2n + 1)
= 2n + 2n
= (2 + 2)n
= 4n
= a multiple of 4, so is divisible by 4.

Consecutive numbers will always total an odd number. Consecutive odd numbers or consecutive primes would be 5 and 7.
There are no two consecutive odd numbers.
The difference of two consecutive odd numbers is always two. Whether it is before 235 or after is irrelevant.
ODD NUMBERS. If you take two consecutive whole (non zero) numbers then one will be an odd number and the other will be an even number. The sum of an odd number and an even number is always an odd number.
The GCF of consecutive odd numbers is 1.
