If the variable Q is an odd integer, how do you represent the next two consecutive odd integers (in terms of Q)?

Question

Write each answer in terms of Q, each answer separated by a comma (example Q-1, Q+3).

Answer 1

Consecutive odd integers are separated by 2 units. For example, consider the sequence of consecutive odd integers:

3,5,7,9,11,...

So if Q is an odd integer, the next odd integer is Q + 2, and the next one after that is (Q + 2) + 2 = Q + 4. This same rule applies to consecutive even integers too.
