How do I find four consecutive odd integers when the sum is 136?
----------
One way is to assign n, n+2, n+4 and n+6, add them, etc.
----------
The easy way:
136/4 = 34
2 will be just below 34 and 2 above.
--> 31, 33, 35, 37

I divide by 4, then take the two below and the two above that number
31+33+35+37=136
