LET X, X+2 & X+4 BE THE 3 ODD INTEGERS.
\n" ); document.write( "X+(X+2)+(X=4)=87
\n" ); document.write( "3X+6=87
\n" ); document.write( "3X=87-6
\n" ); document.write( "3X=81
\n" ); document.write( "X=81/3
\n" ); document.write( "X=27 ANSWER FOR THE SMALLER INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "27=2=29 FOR THE MIDDLE INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "27+4=31 FOR THE LARGEST INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
\n" ); document.write( "27+29+31=87
\n" ); document.write( "87=87 \n" ); document.write( "
