Answer:

33, 35, 37

Explanation:

Consecutive: in a row

Odd: any number not evenly divisible by 2

Integers: Whole numbers

Sum: the answer to an addition problem

So, 100 is close to 30*3, so start there and move on. It has to be a little more, so start at 31, 33, and 35, but it's only 99, so you need something a little more. Check 33, 35, and 37 to be sure, and you've got your answer!
