You can put this solution on YOUR website! the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 465. What are the integers?
-------------
1st odd: 2x-1
2nd odd: 2x+1
3rd odd: 2x+3
------------------
Equation:
sum = 465
6x+3 = 465
6x = 462
x = 77
---
1st: 2x-1 = 153
2nd: 2x+1 = 155
3rd: 2x+3 = 157
--------------------
