Question

how to write an equation for three consecutive odd numbers that equal 117???

Answer 1

What this means is x+(x+2)+(x+2)=117.

Answer 2

@calculusxy Close. It's two numbers.
It's \(x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 117\)

Answer 3

Since it states odd numbers, whereas x=1 and then you add two because odd numbers goes on like this.

Answer 4

But since it is consecutive, it means "one after the other".

Answer 6

Yes. Two consecutive. So for example: 1, 3, 5.
3 = 1 + 2.
5 = 1 + 4.
