pls help to find out answer ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

first number= x+1

second number=x+1+1

third number=x+1+1+1

According to Question

x+1‌+x+1+1+x+1+1+1 = 42

3x+6 = 42

3x = 42-6

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

first number = x+1

= 12+1

= 13

second number = x+1+1

= 12+1+1

= 14

third number = x+1+1+1

= 12+1+1+1

= 15
