In a list of consecutive integers you may find
...., n-3, n-2, n-1, n, n+1, n+2, n+3, ...., in that order.
In a list of consecutive odd (or even) integers you find
...., n-6, n-4, n-2, n, n+2, n+4, n+6, ...., in that order.
So if the third of your consecutive odd integers were ,
the first would be , and the second would be .
Three times the first would be and
three more than twice than twice the third number would be
Then, --> --> --> -->
