Step-by-step explanation:
Required three consecutive natural numbers are 16,17 and 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x,(x+1),(x+2) are three consecutive natural numbers.
According to the problem given,
The sum of the first and second is 15 more than the third number.
=> x+(x+1)-(x+2)=15
=> x+x+1-x-2=15
=> x-1=15
=> x = 15+1
=> x = 16
Therefore,
Required three consecutive natural numbers are :
x = 16,
x+1 = 16+1 = 17,
x+2 = 16+2 = 18

x=16
so,no. are 16 ,16+1,16+2
