You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let the numbers be $\"N-2\"$ , $\"N\"$ , and $\"N%2B2\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"N-2%2BN=N%2B2%2B20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2N-2=N%2B22\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"N=24\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So the numbers are 22,24, and 26.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Verifying,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"22%2B24=26%2B20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"46=46\"$
\n" ); document.write( "True, good solution.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
