Question 1204: The perimeter of a triangle is 195mm. If the lengths of the sides are consecutive odds intergers, how do I find the length of each side?
Answer by khwang(438)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the middle side of the triangle is of length x mm, then the three
sides will be x-2,x,x+2. [Note, they are all consecutive odd integers]
We have x-2+x+x+2 = 195.
So,3x =195, x = 65
Hence, the length of the sides are 63,65 and 67
