since any off integer is in the form (2x+1) then three consecutive integers who's sum is 183 will be in the form (2x+1)+(2x+3)+(2x+5)=183
6x+9=183
subtracting 9
6x=174
dividing by 2
3x=87
dividing by 3
x=29
so the integers are
2(29)+1=59
2(29)+3=61
2(29)+5=63
to check our answer let us sum up the integers
59+61+63=59+1+60+63=60+60+63=183
