Answer:

The numbers are: 117, 119 and 121

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive odd integers be:

n, n + 2 and n + 4

Therefore:

n + n + 2 + n + 4 = 357

3n + 6 = 357

Subtract 6 from each side of the equation.

3n = 351

Divide each side by 3.

3n/3 = 351/3

n = 117

n + 2 = 119

n + 4 = 121

The numbers are: 117, 119 and 121
