Answer:

  • x + 6 and x + 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first odd integer is represented by x + 4, then the next two odd integers must be x + 6 and x + 8. When they are consecutive integers, they always have a difference of 2. Hence, 2 must be added to x + 2 to be a consecutive odd integer.

Hoped this helped.
