Answer:

13, 14, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive Numbers are such that occur one after the other.

If we have a number n the number next to it will be (n + 1)

Using this concept:-

• Let, there be a number x

• it's consecutive number Will be (x + 1)

• (x+1)'s consecutive will be (x + 2)

Lets say the Sum of these three consecutive numbers is 42.

=> x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 42

adding like terms

=> 3x + 3 = 42

Taking 3 common

=> 3(x + 1) = 42

dividing by 3

=> x + 1 = 42/ 3

=> x + 1 = 14

=> x = 13

If the value of x is 13,

• x + 1 = 14

• x + 2 = 15

Hence, Required consecutive numbers are 13, 14, and 15.
