The sum of the 1st and 3rd of 3consecutive odd integers is 131 less than three times the second integer. Find the three integers?  Choose the correct choice from the following options:
A) 121
B) 133
C) 145
D) 150
E) 165
Let x, x + 2 and x + 4 be three integers. The sum of the first x and third x + 4 is given by   x + (x + 4)   131 less than three times the second 3(x + 2) is given by   3(x + 2) - 131   "The sum of the first and third is 131 less than three times the second" gives   x + (x + 4) = 3(x + 2) - 131   Solve for x and find all three numbers   x = 129 , x + 2 = 131 , x + 4 = 133   As an exercise, check that the sum of the first and third is 131 less than three times   133
