The next odd integer after 40 is 41

Any integer that is divisible by 2 with no remainder is even otherwise it is an odd integer
-7 The part of the question stated "negative odd integer" is not necessary. The only part needed is odd. The only numbers less than -5.7 are ALL negative and it would have to be a whole number to be odd so integer is not needed. So, you would be asking the same thing by asking "What is the greatest odd number less than -5.7?" * * * * * The answer is -7, not -9. There is no reason why the answer should be an integer unless the question specified that. It is perfectly correct that the question specifies that it is an integer. The question could have been seeking the greatest number less than -5.7 and the answer would have been that there cannot be such a number because because numbers are infinitely dense. * * * * * The greatest odd integer less than -5.7 is -7 The greatest odd number less than -5.7 is also -7 I was correct on my explanation.
The only integer solution to this is 33.
1 is the lowest odd integer that's greater than 0. The integers continue on into the negative numbers, however, all the way to negative infinity. Thus, there truly is no lowest odd integer.
In order of greatness they are: -1 -3 -5 and -7

Since negative six is not an odd integer, there cannot be any set of odd integers starting from it.

(z = 35 or z = 37) is one way.
Please consider the following two facts: A negative number to an even power is positive; but a negative number to an odd power is negative. Any positive number is greater than any negative number.
