Answer:

Let first number be x.

According to the question second number is x + 1 and the third is x + 2

Sum of first and second numbers = (x) + (x + 1).

According to question:

⇒ (x) + (x + 1) = 15 + (x + 2)

⇒ 2x + 1 = 17 + x

Transposing x to LHS and 1 to RHS, we get

⇒2x – x = 17 – 1

⇒ x = 16

So, first number = x = 16,

Second number = x + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

And third number = x + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18

Thus, the required consecutive natural numbers are 16, 17 and 18.
