• A. $35,46,37$
• B. $5,36,37$
• C. $35,36,37$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$35,36,37$

Let, the three consecutive numbers be $x-1,x,x+1.$

According to question,

$x-1+x+x+1=108$

$\Rightarrow 3x=108$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{108}{3}$

$\Rightarrow x=36$

Hence, the required numbers are, $35,36,37.$
