Answer 11

You can follow satellite's method and keep guessing until you find the answer.

If you need to use an equation, then read below.

Choose x to represent the smallest of the 3 numbers.
Then the next larger number is x + 2.
The largest of the 3 numbers is x + 4.

Their sum is 111, so you have
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 111
Now drop the parentheses on the left side and add like terms.
Solve the equation for x. That gives you the smallest of the three numbers.
Add 2 to the value of x to find the middle number, and add 2 to the middle number to find the largest number.
