51/3 = 17

17 becomes the middle number now take the odd number below 17 , which is 15 and the odd number above 17, which is 19

those are the 3 odd numbers 15 +17+ 19 = 51

the smallest number is 15

$\rightarrow z^4=-625\\\\\rightarrow z=(-625+0i)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\\rightarrow x+iy=(-625+0i)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\ x=r \cos A\\\\y=r \sin A\\\\r \cos A=-625\\\\ r \sin A=0\\\\x^2+y^2=625^{2}\\\\r^2=625^{2}\\\\|r|=625\\\\ \tan A=\frac{0}{-625}\\\\ \tan A=0\\\\ A=\pi\\\\\rightarrow z= [625(\cos (2k \pi+pi) +i \sin (2k\pi+ \pi)]^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\k=0,1,2,3,4,....\\\\\rightarrow z=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{(2k \pi+pi)}{4} +i \sin \frac{(2k\pi+ \pi)}{4}]$

$\rightarrow z_{0}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{\pi)}{4}]\\\\\rightarrow z_{1}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{3\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{3\pi}{4}]\\\\ \rightarrow z_{2}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{5\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{5\pi}{4}]\\\\ \rightarrow z_{3}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{7\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{7\pi}{4}]$
