Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first consecutive number = x,
Second consecutive number = x + 1
and Third consecutive number = x + 2
According to the condition,
x + x + 1 = 15 + x + 2
⇒ 2x + 1 = 17 +x
⇒ 2x -x = 17 – 1
⇒ x= 16
∴ The first consecutive number = 16
Second consecutive number =16+1 = 17
Third consecutive number =16 + 2=18

Answer:
16 , 17 & 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x,x+1,x+2
The sum of first 2 numbers = 15 + the third number
So,x + x + 1 = x + 2 + 15
2x + 1 = x + 17
x = 16
So, the numbers are 16,17,18
