I don't know if I understood the question correctly, but you said 3 odd consecutive numbers so I'd say 11+11+11=33

Or since they are consecutive numbers it could also be 10+11+12=33

(but I know 10 and 12 are not odd)

Trevor Jordan · Answer 2

Let your three integers be x - 2, x, and x + 2, provided x is an odd number.

Now, x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 33

3x = 33

Thus, x = 11

Now, since x = 11, your remaining two numbers are 9, and 13.

And 9 + 11 + 13 = 33

So, your three numbers are 9, 11, and 13.
