Answer: The smaller integer is 121.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first odd number be 'x'.
Let the next consecutive odd number be 'x+2'
Sum of two consecutive odd integers =244.
According to question,
\(x+x+2=244\\\\2x+2=244\\\\2x=244-2\\\\2x=242\\\\x=\dfrac{242}{2}\\\\x=121\)
Hence, the smaller integer is 121.
