Let the consecutive odd integers be
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+\"$ , $\"+n+%2B+2+\"$ , and $\"+n+%2B+4+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+4n+%2B+3%2A%28n+%2B+4%29+=+159+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+4n+%2B+3n+%2B+12+=+159+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+7n+=+147+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+=+21+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+2+=+23+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+4+=+25+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The numbers are 21, 23, and 25 \n" ); document.write( "
