Question

Answer 1

Answer:

The three integers are 59, 61 and 63 respectively

Step-by-step explanation: Please mark as brainliest

Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x, x+2 and x+4 respectively

Sum of these numbers = 183

∴Equation formed:

    x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 183

or 3x + 6 = 183

or 3x = 183 - 6

         = 177

or x = 177 ÷ 3

      = 59

∴ x + 2 = 59 + 2

           = 61

∴ x + 4 = 59 + 4

           = 63
