उत्तर

Let us assume three consecutive odd numbers of series to be x, x + 2 and x + 4

So, the sum of consecutive even numbers = x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 69

3x + 6 = 69

3x = 69 – 6

3x = 63

x = 21

Therefore, Three consecutive odd numbers = x, x + 2 and x + 4

x + 2 = 21 + 2

= 23

x + 4 = 21 + 4

= 25

Prime number = 23.
