Solution
Out of 20 consecutive positive integers, 10 are even numbers and 10 odd numbers.
Sum is odd when one number of even and other is odd.
Favourable cases = $$10_{C_{1}} * 10_{C_{1}}$$ = 10 * 10
Total cases = $$20_{C_{2}}$$ = 10 * 19
Required probability = $$\frac{10 * 10}{10 * 19} = \frac{10}{19}$$
