Let x = 1st consecutive odd integer.
x+2 = second consecutive odd integer.
x+4 = third consecutive odd integer.
x+6 = fourth consecutive odd integer.

Therefore
(1st odd integer).
(2nd odd integer).
(3rd odd integer).
(4th odd integer).

If there are 4 consecutive odd integers with a sum of 80. What is the greatest number in the sequence
-------------------
80/4 = 20, the average and the center of the group of numbers.
--> 17, 19, 21, & 23
------------------------
and why?
23 is the largest because it's larger than the others. What a stupid question.
