3(x+1+X+3+X+5)=X+1+X+3+X+5+X+7+X+9+2(X+11)
=10
SO 3RD TERM IS X+5=10+5=15

RAMESH KUMAR  (9 years ago)

some part of question is missing..its does not specify from where we have to consider odd no.... either from starting or from middle.....
considering from starting i.e 1, 3, 5
its thrice will be 3,9,15
then more three of twice the no means , no will become (2*3+3)=9
(2*9+3)=21
(2*15+3)=33
hence 33 is the answer

Let the numbers b x, x+2 and x+4
So equation is 3*(3x+6)=3+2(x+4)
so 9x+18=2x+11
7x=-7
x=-1

so numbers are -1,1,3

and largest number is 3

answer is 3
