Consecutive numbers are numbers that follow each other in order. They have a difference of 1 between every two numbers. In a set of consecutive numbers,the mean and the median are Equal.

If n is a number, then n can be equal to n+1 and n+2

Examples

Consecutive numbers that follow each other in order....

  • 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
  • -3, −2, −1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
  • 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13

Odd consecutive integers

Odd consecutive integers are odd integers that follow each other. They have a difference of 2 between every two numbers.

If n is an odd integer, then n, n+2, n+4 and n+6 will be odd consecutive integers.

the first number in the pattern is always the variable on its own or in this case, "n".

Examples

3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, etc.

−23, −21, −19, −17, −15, -13, -11
