The only proper factor of 51 that is less than 1/3 of 51 is 3. Divide the sum of three consecutive odd integers by 3: 51/3 = 17. The smallest of these integers will be two less than 17 and the largest will be two more than 17, so the three consecutive odd integers having a sum of 51 are 15, 17, and 19.

The integers are 51, 53, 55 and 57.
Divide the sum of the three consecutive odd integers by 3: 159/3 = 53. The smallest of these integers will be two less than 53 and the largest will be two more than 53, so the three consecutive odd integers will be 51, 53, and 55.
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.
Divide the sum of the three consecutive odd integers by 3: 183/3 = 61. The smallest of these integers will be two less than 61 and the largest will be two more than 61, so the three consecutive odd integers will be 59, 61, 63.
