Hi ,

Let x , ( x + 10 ) , ( x + 20 ) are three

consecutive odd multiples of 5 .

According to the problem given ,

x + x + 10 + x + 20 = 285

3x + 30 = 285

3x = 285 - 30

3x = 255

x = 255/3

x = 85

Therefore ,

Required numbers are ,

x , x + 10 , x + 20

i.e ,

85 , 95 , 105

I hope this helps you.
