Answer:
59 ,61 63
Step-by-step explanation:
we consider the integers
0
,
1
,
2
,
3
,
4
,
...
then a generic odd number would be represented as
2
n
+
1
where
n
is an integer.
So the three consecutive numbers can be written as:
2
n
+
1
,
2
n
+
3
,
2
n
+
5
So then:
2
n
+
1
+
2
n
+
3
+
2
n
+
5
=
183
∴
6
n
+
9
=
183
∴
6
n
=
174
∴
n
=
29
⇒
2
n
+
1
=
59
So the three numbers are:
59
,
61
and
63
whose sum is
183
