The average is 10. You will find that the average when adding together the first n odd numbers is always equal to n.
Let's call the first odd number x. Since the numbers are consecutive, the second odd number would be x + 2. The sum of the two numbers is 44, so the equation would be x + (x + 2) = 44. Solving this equation yields x = 21, which means the two consecutive odd numbers are 21 and 23.

The sum of the first n odd numbers is n squared. 25 x 25 = 625
The sum of two even numbers is always EVENYes.Proof:We can consider an even number as 2*n, and an odd number as 2*n+1.The sum of two even numbers would be 2*n+2*m=2*(n+m), an even number.
