Question

The sum of three consecutive odd intergers is 17 less that four the smallest interger?​

Answer 1

The integers are 23, 25, 27

Explanation:

the sum of three consecutive odd integers

`S = x + (x+2) + (x + 4)\\`

17 less than four the smallest integer

`S = 4x-17`

Now set them equal and solve

`4x-17 = 3x + 6\\x = 23`
