Answer:

13 + 14 + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

n + (n + 1) + (n +2) =42

n + n + n + 1 + 2 = 42

3n + 3 = 42

(subtract 3 from both sides)

3n = 39

(divide both sides by 3)

n = 13

(solve)

n + (n + 1) + (n +2) =42

13 + (13 + 1) + (13 + 2) = 42

13 + (14) + (15) = 42

13, 14, 15

(Hope this helps, have a nice day!)
