Answer:
The numbers are:
3, 5, 7 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
a = first odd number or "the smaller"
a+2 = second consecutive odd number
a+4 = third consecutive odd number
a+6 = fourth consecutive odd number
Then:
5(a+2) = 1 + 8(a)
(5*a + 5*2) = 1 + 8a
5a + 10 = 1 + 8a
10 - 1 = 8a - 5a
9 = 3a
9/3 = a
a = 3
a+2 = 5
a+4 = 7
a+6 = 9
Check:
5(5) = 1 + 8(3)
25 = 1 + 24
Answer:
- The integers are 3, 5, 7 an d 9
-------------------------------------------------
The difference between consecutive integers is 2.
Let the smallest be n, then we have the following equation:
- 5(n + 2) = 8n +1
Solve it for n:
- 5n + 10 = 8n + 1
- 8n - 5n = 10 - 1
- 3n = 9
- n = 3
The other integers are 5, 7, 9.
