Question

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 51. find the numbers.

Answer 1

let x ,x+2, x+4 are three consecutive odd numbers
sum =51
x+x+2+x+4 =51
3x+6=51
3x =51-6
3x =45
x= 45/3
x=15
therefore
the numbers are x,x+2, x+4
15,(15+2),(15+4)
15,17,19

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 =51

A/q

(x)+(x+2)+(x+4)=51
3x+6=51
3x=51-6
3x=45
x=15
now

The first integer is: x=15

the second integer is: x+2=15+2 = 17

the third integer is: x+4=15+4=19

Hope it helps you
