Answer:

The numbers are 327, 329 and 331.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be :

  • x
  • x + 2
  • x + 4

\longrightarrow x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 987

\longrightarrow 3x + 6 = 987

\longrightarrow 3x = 987 - 6

\longrightarrow 3x = 981

\longrightarrow x = 981/3

\longrightarrow x = 327

Other numbers :

\longrightarrow (x + 2) = (327 + 2) = 329

\longrightarrow (x + 4) = (327 + 4) = 331

Therefore, the numbers are 327, 329 and 331.
