Easy way
-21÷3=-7 which is the exact center so
-6, -7, -8
Equation
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = -21
3x + 3 = -21
3x=-24
x=-8
x+1=-7
x+2=-6
2. Consecutive Odd Integers
X, X+2, X+4
X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 144
3X+6=144
3X=144-6=138
X = 138/3 = 46 .....There are no 3 odd Integers that can equal an even integer
3. 3 consecutive even number x, x+2, x+4
X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 48
3X+6=48
3X=48-6=42
X=42/3=14

Assuming that point s is the vertex of the angle and that line sq is between angle psr. We can get the correct measurement of angle psq by subtracting 99 degrees with the measurement of the angle made by qsr. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
-5/2 is equivalent to -2.5, and if you multiply 2.5 by 2 you get 5, and you have to have the negative, so add that to the 5 and you get -5. Hope this helps!
