    Since any off integer is in the form (2x+1) then three consecutive integers who's sum is 183 will be in the form (2x+1) + (2x+3) + (2x+5) = 183

    6x+9=183

    subtracting 9

    6x=174

    dividing by 2

    3x=87

    dividing by 3

    x=29

    so the integers are

    2 (29) + 1=59

    2 (29) + 3=61

    2 (29) + 5=63

    to check our answer let us sum up the integers

    59+61+63=59+1+60+63=60+60+63=183
