There are no three odd consecutive integers because consecutive integers all have 1 between them, meaning at least one of them will be an even integer. ------------------- Let x, x+2, and x+4 be the three consecutive odd integers. We want x+(x+2)+(x+4) to equal 531. x+(x+2)+(x+4) = 531 3x+6=531 3x=531-6=525 x=525/3=175 Therefore, the three consecutive odd integers are 175, 177, and 179. A quick check shows that those three integers add up to 531.
