8 more than s stripes
Designate the smallest of the three consecutive odd integers as s. The next two will be s + 2 and 2 + 4. From the problem statement: 5 + s + (s + 4) = 3(s + 2), or 9 + 2s = 3s + 6, or s = 3. Check: 3 + 7 + 5 = 3 X 5; 15 = 15.
A composite number has one or more factors other than 1 and itself. For example, 25's factors are 1, 5, and 25, and 16's factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
