Step-by-step explanation:
Solution :
Let the first consecutive number = x,
Second consecutive number = x + 1
and Third consecutive number = x + 2
According to the condition,
x+x+1=15+x+2x+x+1=15+x+2
⇒2x+1=17+x⇒2x+1=17+x
⇒2x-x=17-1⇒2x−x=17−1
⇒x=16⇒x=16
∴ The first natural number = x = 16
Second natural number = x+1 = 16+1 = 17
Third natural number = x +2 = 16 + 2=18
Hence, the three consecutive natural numbers are 16, 17 and 18.
