Question

If the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 105, what is the smallest of the three integers

Answer 1

Three consecutive odd intergers can be identified as x, x+2, x+4 so,

x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 105

3x + 6 = 105

3x = 99

x = 33     So, you come to a solution of 33, 35, 37

Answer 2

how about 105/3 = 35,  therefore the middle number is 35, and the 3 numbers are 33, 35, and 37.
