Let the consecutive odd number be x,x+2,X+4
\n" ); document.write( "Given that 4(first + third number )= 7 (second) -1
\n" ); document.write( "4(x +x+4 ) = 7(x+2) -1
\n" ); document.write( "8x +16 = 7x +14 -1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 13 - 16
\n" ); document.write( "x = -3
\n" ); document.write( "Then the three numbers are -3, -1,1.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
