Answer:

52, 53, 54

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the 3 numbers, we first use the equation x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 159.

Step 1: Combine like terms.

  • [tex](x+x+x)+(1+2)=159[/tex]
  • [tex]3x + 3 = 159[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

  • [tex]3x + 3 - 3 = 159 - 3[/tex]
  • [tex]3x = 156[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

  • [tex]3x/3 = 156/3[/tex]
  • [tex]x = 52[/tex]

Step 4: Plug in 52 back into the equation.

  • [tex](52) + (52+1) + (52+2) = 159[/tex]
  • [tex]52+53+54=159[/tex]
  • [tex]105 + 54 = 159[/tex]
  • [tex]159[/tex]

Therefore, the numbers are 52, 53, and 54.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
