<span>the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 69. Find the integers.
-------------
1st: 2x-1
2nd: 2x+1
3rd: 2x+3
---------------------
Equation:</span>2x-1 + 2x+1 + 2x+3 = 69<span>
</span><span>6x + 3 = 69
2x + 1 = 23
-----------------
So 2x-1 = 21
And 2x+3 = 25

</span><span>let:
x be the first odd integer
x + 2 be the 2nd odd integer
x + 4 be the 3rd odd integer
solution:
1st odd integer + 2nd odd integer + 3rd odd integer = 69
x + (x+2) + (x+4)= 69
</span>
<span>3x + 6 = 69
3x = 69 - 6
3x = 63 (dividing both sides by three)
x = 21
_______________________________________
x=21
x+2=23
x+4=25 
therefore, the 1st integer is 21, the 2nd is 23 and the 3rd is 25..</span>

Since both of the angles are supplementary, you'd set the expressions up into an equation equal to 180(degrees).
So, your equation should look like:
                       22x + 4 + 35x + 5 = 180.
Next, you combine your like terms so that your next move will look like:
                       57x + 9 = 180.
Then you'd follow the subtraction and division property, so your next moves will look as the following:
                       57x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9 equals 171
                       57x / 57 = 171 / 57 equals 3
So, finally, your answer is: x = 3.
