b.)\quad 7\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
c.)\quad 9\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
d.)\quad 11\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
\end{align}}\)


\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align}&P=2n-1,Q=2n+1,R=2n+3\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
&3P-3=2R\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
&3(2n-1)-3=2(2n+3)\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
&n=6 \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
&R=2n+3=15


\end{align}}\)
