consecutive odd numbers are 2 apart from each other example
3,5,7 are 2 apart from each other so
numbers are x, x+2,x+2+4

so we add them to get -195
-195=x+x+2+x+2+2
add like terms
-195=3x+6
subtract 6 from btoh sides
-201=3x
divide both sides by 3
-67=x
subsitute
x,x+2,x+4
-67,-67+2, -67+4
-67, -65, -63

the numbers area
-63,-65,-67
