find four consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the first three exceeds the fourth by 18.
Let the first of the four consecutive odd integers = F
Then others are: F + 2, F + 4, and F + 6
We therefore have: F + F + 2 + F + 4 = F + 6 + 18
3F + 6 = F + 24
3F - F = 24 - 6
2F = 18
F, or first of the three odd integers = , or
Other three are:
