    4 consecutive odd numbers ... x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

    2 (x + x + 2) = 3 (x + 4 + x + 6) - 40

    2 (2x + 2) = 3 (2x + 10) - 40

    4x + 4 = 6x + 30 - 40

    4x + 4 = 6x - 10

    4x - 6x = - 10 - 4

    -2x = - 14

    x = - 14/-2

    x = 7

    x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9

    x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11

    x + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13

    ur numbers are : 7,9,11,13 <==
