Since we need three odd consecutive integers, let:

x = odd integer
x+2 = the second odd integer
x+4 = the third odd integer

Therefore, the equation becomes:

Now solve for "x" to determine the first odd integer.

Remember to check the equation by substituting the values in the original equation to ensure it balances (one side of the equation equals the other).
