Verified Answer :

n and n+2 is your answer hope I helped :)♥♥

Answer:  The correct option is

(B) n and n + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the correct pair of expressions that could represent consecutive odd numbers.

Let n and m be two consecutive odd numbers.

We know that

the difference between two consecutive odd numbers is 2.

So, we must have

\(m-n=2\\\\\Rightarrow m=n+2.\)

Therefore, if n is one odd number, then the next odd number is (n + 2).

Thus, n and n + 2  represents the pair of consecutive odd numbers.

(B) is the correct option.
