Question 860780: Fine three consecutive positive odd integers such of the product in the first and third is equal to one
Answer by CubeyThePenguin(3113) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
consecutive positive integers: (x-2), x, (x+2)

(x-2)(x+2) = 1
x^2 - 4 = 1
x^2 = 5

The solution to this equation is not an integer, so this cannot happen.
