Question

four times the first of three consecutive odd integers is five less than the product of three and the third integer find the integer

Answer 1

I don't understand what integer is being asked for. The question is poorly worded.

The three integers are 7, 9, 11.
4 times 7 = 28
and 3 times 11 = 33
and 28 is 5 less than 33.
