Which of the following can NOT be the product of two consecutive odd numbers?

1 answer:

6 0

The answer is B.

Here is how I got that.
To create the product of two consecutive odd integers, the equation is:
(2n+1)×(2n+3)

That equation has to equal 468737.

When figuring out the equation I found that when the equation used answer B, the integers were even. So 468737 is the product of two even integers. That does not match the criteria (of two odd integers) so it does not work.
