If these three terms are consecutive, the difference between the first and second and second and third terms will be equal and difference between each term will be 1.
2x + m - x = 1
x + m = 1
x = 1 - m -------@
(2x + m) - (1) = (3x + 6) - (2x + m)
2x + m - 1 = 3x + 6 - 2x - m
2x + m - 1 = x - m + 6
2x - x + m + m = 6 + 1
x + 2m = 7
1 - m + 2m = 7 (From @)
m = 7 - 1
m = 6
