Hello,

Let the number be x
So, consecutive numbers are x+1 and x+2

So,
The three numbers are
X, x+1, x+2

Now,sum is given 345
So,

x+x+1+x+2 = 345
Or,
3x +3 = 345
Or,
3(x+1) = 345
Or,
x+1 = 345/3 = 115
Or,
x = 115 - 1 = 114

So,
The three consecutive numbers are
114, 115, 116

Hope this will be helping you ✌️

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 345. what are the three numbers ..

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✰✰ ANSWER ✰✰

\longmapsto\tt{Let\:First\:No.\:be=x}

\longmapsto\tt{Let\:Second\:No.\:be=x+1}

\longmapsto\tt{Let\:Third\:No.\:be=x+2}

Sum of Numbers = 345

A.T.Q : -

\longmapsto\tt{x+x+1+x+2=345}

\longmapsto\tt{3x+3=345}

\longmapsto\tt{3x=345-3}

\longmapsto\tt{3x=342}

\longmapsto\tt{x=\dfrac{\cancel{342}}{\cancel{3}}}

\red\longmapsto\:\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\green{x}\orange{=}\purple{114}}}

Now ,

\longmapsto\tt{First\:No.=x}

\longmapsto\tt{114}

\longmapsto\tt{Second\:No.=x+1}

\longmapsto\tt{114+1}

\longmapsto\tt{115}

\longmapsto\tt{Third\:No.=114+2}

\longmapsto\tt{116}

Three Consecutive No. are 114 , 115 , 116 ..

VERIFICATION : -

\longmapsto\tt{114+114+1+114+2=345}

\longmapsto\tt{114+115+116=345}

\longmapsto\tt{345=345}

\purple\longmapsto\:\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\blue{L.H.S}\pink{=}\green{R.H.S}}}
