Answer:

I will assume that "first number is 6 less than 4 times a number" is meant to say something like "first number is 6 less than 4 times the middle number."  As written, it offers no information.  "first number is 6 less than 4 times a number" could be almost anything.  If this can be clarified, consider the following process for solving the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive numbers:  X, Y, and Z

We can rewite this as:

X = X

Y = X+1

Z = X+2

1)  X = 4[?????] - 6        [Need some clarification about the "number"]                  

2)  Z = 3X + 7    [Substitute the value for Z from above]

    X+2 = 3X+7

    2X = -5

And so on.
