Answer:

25 is the first integer of 3 consecutive odd integers whose sum is 81. So, the second odd integer is 27, the third odd integer is 29. The answer came out, the sum of 3 consecutive odd integers is 81, these three odd integers are 25, 27 and 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the integers are consecutive, 3 times the average (which will be a+1) of the three numbers will be 81: a = 26 �> the same answer 26, 27, 28 is obtained.
