Which three consecutive odd numbers total 129?

Answer 1

Let's represent the three consecutive odd numbers as x, x+2, and x+4. Since odd numbers are always 2 units apart, we can express them this way. Adding these three numbers together, we get x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 129. Combining like terms, we have 3x + 6 = 129. Solving for x, we find x = 41. Therefore, the three consecutive odd numbers are 41, 43, and 45.

Answer 2

129 divided by 3 is 43, so the three numbers are 41, 43, and 45.
