Answer:

18, 19, 20

Step-by-step explanation:

(n) + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 57

3n + 3 = 57

3n = 57 - 3 = 54

n = 54/3 = 18

three numbers are 18, 18+1, 18+2

18, 19, 20

Answer:

18,19,20

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 57

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 57

Combine like terms

3x + 3 = 57

subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 54

divide both sides by 3

x = 18

The answer is 18, 19, 20

Since we know the value of x, we can look at it like this:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) --- > 18 + (18+ 1) + (18+2) --> 18 + 19 + 20
