The product of three consecutive odd integers is 400.
=============
The product of any number of odd integers is and odd number.
It can't be 400.

(x)(x+2)(x+4) = 400
(x+2)+10=x(x+4)-10
This is an imaginary problem. Please note that there is not such a thing as three odd integers that you can multiply and get 400. 5*7*9 = 315
and 7*9*11 = 693.
However, the problem is only asking to write the equations and doesn't ask to for what these odd integers are.
