eight times the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 210 more than 10 times the middle integer. Find the integers?

Let the numbers be x, x+2, x+4
8 times the sum of the consecutive odd numbers = 8(x+x+2+x+4)
10(x+2) +210
8(x+x+2+x+4) = 10(x+2) +210
24x+48=10x+20 +210
14x=230-48
14x=182
x=13
x+2=15
x+4=17
The numbers are 13,15,17
