Odd Consecutive Integer Formula In mathematics, we represent an odd integer as 2n + 1. If 2n + 1 is an odd integer, (2n + 3) and (2n + 5) will be the next two odd consecutive integers. For example, let 2n + 1 be 7, which is an odd integer. We find its consecutive integers as (7 + 2) and (7 + 4), or 9 and 11.

When you start counting natural numbers you are just counting the consecutive numbers or consecutive integers. Consecutive integers are integers that follow each other in a fixed sequence. Did you know that whenever you number items you are using Consecutive Integers? In fact, whenever you count by ones from any number in a set you obtain Consecutive Integers. Consecutive integers are integers that follow in a fixed sequence, each number being 1 more than the previous number, Consecutive integers are represented by n, n +1, n + 2, n + 3, …, where n is an integer.
Examples of Consecutive Integer
For example: 23, 24, 25
Look at the following. The first set is called consecutive positive integers and the second set is called consecutive negative integers.
Example 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…..
Example 2: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6,…..
In the first example a set of consecutive integers is found by adding 1 to 0. You can represent the first set with this expression: n + 1, with n = 0, 1, 2, …..
The second set of consecutive integers is found by subtracting 1 from 0. You can represent the second set with this expression: 1 − n, with n = 2, 3, 4, 5,…..
