Find 3 consecutive odd integers whose sum is 225, explain

3 odd integers have a property that they average up to the middle large one. Let's say we have 3, 5, and 7. 3 is 2 less than 5 and 7 is 2 more than 5. so when you add them it equals 2 times 5. 
After we know that, the sum of 3 odd integers is just 3 times the middle number. ex. 3+5+7 = 3 times 5 = 15
Then we know the some number times three = 225. we find out that the middle number is 75, so the other two are 73 and 77

It is 5.8 you add all of the up to equat 180 then solve the equation
