Question

Three consecutive odd integers are in increasing order such that the sum of the last two integers is 13 more than the first integer. find the three integers?

Answer 1

Let the smallest number be x

so other numbers are x + 2 & x + 4

so by the condition given in your question we get equation

x + 13 = x + 2 + x + 4

x + 13 = 2x + 6

2x - x = 14 - 6

x = 7

so the numbers are 7 , 9 & 11
