Equation 1: \"X+%2B+%28X%2B2%29+%2B+%28X%2B4%29+%2B+%28X%2B6%29\" The 4 integers in term of the smallest one. We increase each number by two because you only want the odd numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "Equation 2:\"X+=+%28X%2B4%29+%2B+%28X%2B6%29+-+25\" combine like terms
\n" ); document.write( "\"X+=+2X+-+15\" Subtract X from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"0+=+X+-+15\" Add 15 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"15+=+X\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now plug 15 in for X into equation 1 to get the 4 numbers
\n" ); document.write( "Equation 1: \"X+%2B+%28X%2B2%29+%2B+%28X%2B4%29+%2B+%28X%2B6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"15+%2B+%2815%2B2%29+%2B+%2815%2B4%29+%2B+%2815%2B6%29\" Simplify
\n" ); document.write( "\"15+%2B+17+%2B+19+%2B+21\"

\n" ); document.write( "19 + 21 = 40
\n" ); document.write( "40 - 25 = 15
