Question 97151
1) Let x be the first odd integer, then x+2 will be the next consecutive odd integer.
From the problem description, you can write:
3x = 2(x+2)+5 Apply the distributive property to the right side.
3x = 2x+4+5  Simplify.
3x = 2x+9 Subtract 2x from both sides.
x = 9
The two integers are 9 and 11

Check:
3(9) = 2(11)+5
27 = 22+5
27 = 27

2)  I don't know of an easy way to see if a similar problem to one you want help with has already been answered.  You could try clicking on "Recent problems solved by all" and do a manual search but that could be quite time-consuming.
