    Let the consecutive odd integers be:

    x, x + 2, x + 4. Each integer increases by 2

    Sum of largest and twice the smallest = 25

    (x + 4) + 2 * (x) = 25

    x + 4 + 2x = 25

    x + 2x = 25 - 4

    3x = 21

    x = 21/3

    x = 7

    Recall the consecutive odd integers are x, x + 2, x + 4

    7, 7 + 2 = 9, 9 + 2 = 11

    7, 9, 11.
