There are no four odd numbers that will add up to nineteen.
There are no four consecutive whole numbers that add up to 35. The sum of two consecutive [whole] numbers is an even number plus an odd number which is an odd number. The sum of two consecutive numbers and the two next consecutive numbers is the sum of two odd numbers which is even, but 35 is odd, so no four consecutive whole numbers cannot add up to 35.

There have to be an even number of odd numbers in each group, and each group must have more than two odd numbers (since 19 + 17 is only 36); thus there must be four in one group and six in the other. There are many ways to get four odd numbers to add up to to 50; for example, you could take 1, 13, 17 and 19. The remaining six odd numbers will then also add up to 50.

There is no real answer. The sum of four odd numbers must be even and so cannot be 19.
Adding 4 odd numbers together will always equal an even number - got ya!

You get an even number
The numbers are 57, 59, 61 and 63.
To make sure the smallest number is odd, call it (2x-1), which has to be odd.Four consecutive odd numbers are . . . (2x-1) + (2x+1) + (2x+3) + (2x+5) = 198x + 8 = 198x = 11x = 11/8There is no solution that satisfies the conditions given in the question.We should have suspected this as soon as we read the question, because we know thatan even number of odd numbers can't add up to an odd number.
An odd number of odd numbers can not add up to an even number. There fore any 9 (odd) odd numbers can not add up to 50 (even).
I won't tell you the answer, but here's a hint, you can use each number more than one time...
1 + 3 + 5 + 71 there are many combinations
21, 23, 25, and 27
