Question

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 17 less than four times the smallest integer. Find the integers.

Answer 1

Answer:

23, 25, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

n + (n+2) + (n+4) = 4n - 17

3n + 6 = 4n - 17

3n - 4n = -17 - 6

-n = -23

n = 23

therefore,

23, 25, 27 are the 3 consecutive odd integers
