The average of the 3 is 345/3=115
Therefore can use 115 as the middle and 114 and 116. Or 113 and 117 or 112 and 118.
There are not an infinite number of possibilities, because to make one greater than 145 would require one of the other two to be less than 100.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Many answers.

And since the condition didn't say "integer numbers", there are actually infinitely many triples of real numbers satisfying the condition.

(100.1, 100.1, 144.8) is one example.

(100.2, 100.2, 144.6) is another example.

(100.01, 100.01, 144.98) is third example.

And so on . . .
