You can put this solution on YOUR website! Three consecutive, natural numbers:-
x, x + 1 and x +2.
x + (x + 1)+ (x + 2)= 975
3x + 3 = 975
3x = 975 - 3
3x = 972
x = 324.
Three numbers are:- 324, 325 and 326
Total = 975.
Hope this helps.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! ur no. is 975
let be first no. be (x)
therefore three consecutive no. are x, x+1, x+2
so the sum of these no. are
x+x+1+x+2=975
3x+3=975
3x=975-3
3x=972
x=972/3
x=324
therefore no. are 324,325,326
