Chose any integer x.
Three consecutive odd numbers: 2x+1 2x+3 2x+5
2x+5+2(2x+1)=115
2x+5+4x+2=115
6x+7=115
6x=108
x=18
The middle number is 2x+3=2*18+3 = 39

What is the relationship between addition and subtraction?
The relationship between addition and subtraction is inverse. We can add two counting numbers together, and we do not need to pay attention to the order of these whole numbers. But, for subtraction, we have to subtract the smallest counting number from the largest counting number.
Where can we find three consecutive even integers such that the largest is three times the smallest?
You've come to the right place. The integers are: 2, 4, and 6
What is opposite of the least counting numbers?
The opposite of "least" is "largest" or "greatest". However, note that there is no such thing as the largest counting number.
What are 3 consecutive integers such that twice the smallest is 12 more than the largest?
-- Call the three consecutive integers (x-1), x, and (x+1).-- Twice the smallest is 2(x-1) or (2x-2).-- 12 more than the largest is (x+1)+12 or (x+13).-- These are equal, so2x - 2 = x + 13Subtract 'x' from each side of the equation:x - 2 = 13Add 2 to each side:x = 15 .-- The smallest of the three numbers is (x-1) = 14.-- The three consecutive integers are 14, 15, and 16.-- Twice the smallest is 28.-- 28 is 12 more than 16.QED, man, QED !
What formula represents the largest of these integers if you are thinking of n consecutive positive integers and the smallest of which is m?
For x, which is the largest integer of nconsecutive positive integers of which the smallest is m:x = m + n - 1
Find 3 consecutive integers such that twice the smallest is 12 more than the largest?
They are (14, 15, 16).
What is the range of the consecutive odd numbers from 7 through to 35?
The range of a set of numbers is the range between the largest and the smallest number. This is basically the largest number in the sequence subtract the smallest number in the sequence. In this case, the smallest number is 7 and the largest number is 35. This makes the range 28.
What is the name of the country with the smallest and largest land area in Central America?
BY LAND AREA: Largest - United States Smallest - St. Kitts and Nevis Do not get land area and total area confused. If counting by total area, the largest would not be the US but rather Canada. The smallest would, however, remain the same.

What number does Arizona ranks from smallest to largest?
Arizona is the sixth largest US State.Alaska is the 50th Smallest US State.Texas is the 49th Smallest US State.California is the 48th Smallest US State.Montana is the 47th Smallest US State.New Mexico is the 46th Smallest US State, and therefore,Arizona is the 45th Smallest US State. (I can only hope that is correct, at my age counting backwards is difficult enough even without the aid of medication and Fire-water.)
What is the formula for finding three consecutive integers such that the sum of the largest and 5 times the smallest is -244?
249
The sum of three consecutive odd integers is -147 Find the largest of these three integers?
Divide the sum of the three consecutive odd integers by 3: -147 /3 = -49. The smallest of these integers will be two less than -49 and the largest will be two more than -49, so the three consecutive odd integers will be -47, -49, and -51.
