Any of 7,111,777 or 7,333,555 or 7,555,333 or 7,777,111.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first digit must be 7. The sum of the unknown digits is then 31-7 = 24. Since this represents 3 pairs of digits (a thousands period digit and a units period digit), each pair must total 24/3 = 8.

There are two ways that odd numbers can total 8: 1+7 = 3+5 = 8. Since there is no restriction on the digits other than they must be the same in any period and they must be odd, there are 4 ways the 2 pairs of digits can be arranged into a number:

7,111,777 7,333,555 7,555,333 7,777,111
