Question 462315: Hi, I am really struggling with this word problem involving consecutive integers, I have the answer to the problem because it is provided but I do not know how to set it up, I probly could solve it if I just could figure out how to set it up.. Here it is: Find 3 consecutive odd integers such that the largest number is 5 more than the sum of the first two. Can you please show me how to set this up? Here is what I have tried:x+4=x+x+2(5), also tried x+4=5+x+x+2, and x+4=5+(x+x+2) and several other ways! Please help!!!! Thank you for your time, Diana
