    Step-by-step explanation:

    x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 4 (x+4) - 21

    3x+6=4x-5

    11=x

    x=11

    x+2=13

    x+4=15

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the smallest odd number

    x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 4 (x + 4) - 21

    3x + 6 = 4x + 16 - 21

    3x + 6 = 4x - 5

    x = 11

    Numbers are: 11, 13, 15
