Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

let n and n + 2 be 2 consecutive even numbers, then their difference of their squares is

(n + 2)² - n² ← expand factor using FOIL

= n² + 4n + 4 - n² ← collect like terms

= 4n + 4 ← factor out 4 from each term

= 4(n + 1)

Since n and n + 2 are even then n + 1 is odd

So it is always an odd number multiplied by 4
