i dont really have a method for this <.< answer is 15 >.>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the three numbers are 73, 75, and 77, their sum is 225, square root of 225 is 15.

ok

i guess i can explain my thought process, although its weak at best. if you let n, be the middle number, then the 3 consecutive odd numbers are: \[n-2, n, n+2\] their sum is 3n. so you want 3n to add up to a perfect square. that means that n needs to be factorable into 3*(some other square). so i randomly picked squares and came across 25. 3*25 is 75. 3*3*25 = 225, so on and so forth.
