Answer 1

Answer:

Correct answer -

The numbers are - 14 , 15 , 16

Answer 2

Answer:

14, 15 & 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original number be x.

Next number is x + 1

And the number next to this number is (x + 1) + 1 = x + 2

According to the question,

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 45

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 45

3x + 3 = 45

3x = 45 - 3 = 42

x = $\frac{42}{3}$

x = 14

Therefore. the numbers are 14, 15 and 16.
