Let the smallest number be x

Given three consecutive number-

Therefore,

Second number = x+1

Third number = x+2

x+x+1+x+2 = 117

3x+3 = 117

3x=114

x=114/3=38

Largest no = x+2 = 38+2 =40

117.

By dividing it in half, you can find these numbers and base your answer off that as a start:

118 is your mid point which shows that the other two would be odd integers around so, thus being 117 as the smaller odd integer.

Hope this helps!

Divide 117117 by 3 (the number of integers)
You get 39039
That's the middle integer.
Subtract and add 2 from 39039
39039 - 2 = 39037
39039 + 2 = 39041
Your 3 integers are 39037, 39039, and 39041.

Have an awesome day! :)

Hello there

how are you

the Answer you are looking for is

Explanation:

Three odd consecutive numbers can be written as x, x+2, and x+4.


Adding these together and setting to the answer we want, we get:

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 117

Simplifying: 3x+6 = 117

3x = 111

x = 37


Now we find the next two odd numbers by adding 2 and 4 to this number.

37 + 2 = 39

37 + 4 = 41


So your answer is 37, 39 and 41.

First odd integer: 2k+1 (note: using 2k+1 insures it is an odd integer)

Second odd integer: 2k+3

Third odd integer: 2k+5

First + Second + Third = 117

2k+1 + 2k+3 + 2k+5 = 117 substituted for First, Second, and Third

6k + 9 = 117 added like terms

6k = 108 subtracted 7 from both sides

k = 18

First: 2k + 1 = 2(18) + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37

Second: 2k + 3 = 2(18) + 3 = 36 + 3 = 39

Third: 2k + 5 = 2(18) + 5 = 36 + 5 = 41

37, 39, 41
