Let x be the smaller of the two consecutive odd positive integers, then the other is x + 2.
According to the given conditions.
x < 10, x + 2 < 10 and x + (x + 2) > 11
⇒ x < 10, x < 8
and 2x > 9
x < 10, (∵ x < 8 automatically smallest of the lesser than) ... (1)
and x > (9/2) ... (2)
From (1) and (2), we get 9
(9/2) < x < 8
Also, x is an odd positive integer. x can take values 5 and 7.
So, the required possible pairs will be (x, x + 2) = (5, 7), (7, 9)
