Question

write a python program which finds three consecutive odd numbers whose sum adds up to 45 and return a list of the numbers in ascending order

do not use any other packages such as numpy or math

Answer 1

Let me explain the maths behind the solution below -
Since the numbers are consecutive odd numbers, let the numbers be n-2,n,n+2
So, (n-2)+n+(n+2) = 45
3n = 45
n = 15

Python function -
def function(total): #total is sum of consecutive odd integers
n = total//3
return [n-2,n,n+2]
