Question

the sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 495

Answer 1

x+(x+2) +(x+4) =495
3x=489
x=163
(x+2 because if x+1 is taken then even no will be answer)

Answer 2

Here is your solution

Let,
The first odd integer be:x

Then the second odd integer is:-
x+2

Then the third odd integer is:-
x+2+2=x+4

Sum of three consecutive odd numbers =495

A/q

(x)+(x+2)+(x+4)=495
3x+6=495
3x=495-6
3x=489
x=163
now

The first integer is: x = 163

the second integer is: x+2 = 163+2 = 165

the third integer is: x+4 = 163+4 = 167

Hope it helps you
