Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between consecutive integers is 1.
The difference between consecutive odd integers is 2.
Let the smallest odd integer be x.
Then the next greater one is x + 2. The greatest one is x + 4.
"3 times the first" is 3x
"twice the third" is 2(x + 4)
"3 times the first of three consecutive odd integers is 3 more than twice the third"
3x = 2(x + 4) + 3
3x = 2x + 8 + 3
x = 11
The smallest integer is 11.
x + 4 = 11 + 4 = 15
The greatest one is 15.
The answer to the problem is x - 1
Change the mixed numbers into improper fractions:
5/3 X 9/2
Reduce - the 3 and 9 can be simplified
5/1 X 3/2
multiple numerators and denominators
15/2
Not sure how you need the answer - i would change it into a mixed number
7 1/2
