Let the first number be x
then second number = x+2
and third number = x + 4
According to the question,
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 147
3x + 6 = 147
3x = 141
x = 141/3
x = 47
first number = x
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 47
second number = x + 2
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 47 + 2
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 49
third number = x + 4
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 47 + 4
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 51
Hence the required numbers are 47, 49 and 51.
