Let the middle number of the three be n. Then the three consecutive numbers are n-1, n, n+1.
Their sum is n-1 + n + n+1 = 3n
Their average is 3n / 3 = n
The difference between their sum and their average is 3n-n = 2n
2n = 156
=> n = 78.
Thus the three numbers are 77, 78, 79

The sum is always 3 more than (triple the smallest number).
Yes - consecutive serial numbers make them more valuable, when sold.
First of all, you need to be more specific. It's three consecutive integers. And they are 2,999, 3,000, and 3,001
Suppose the middle integer is a. Then the three consecutive integers are a-1, a and a+1. Now, 3*a = (a-1)+(a+1) + 1 So 3a = 2a + 1 => a=1 So the three numbers are 0, 1 and 2
Divide the sum of the three consecutive numbers by 3: 75/3=25. The smallest of these numbers will be one less than 25 and the largest will be one more than 25, so the three consecutive numbers will be 24, 25, and 26.
After (3, 5, 7), you can't have any more such "triplets", since one of the three must needs be a multiple of 3.

numbers with patterns; consecutive numbers: 1,2,3,4... consecutive even numbers: 2,4,6,8... and many more Consecutive numbers are numbers that come one after another. For example 5, 6, 7 or 99 and 100.
Assuming you mean how to solve what three consecutive numbers sum to some value: Divide the sum by three to get the middle number. The other two numbers are one less than this and one more than it. example: Which three consecutive numbers sum to 108? 108 ÷ 3 = 36 → The other two numbers are 36 - 1 = 35 and 36 + 1 = 37 → The three numbers are 35, 36, 37. 35 + 36 + 37 = 108 as required.
The sum is always 3 more than (triple the smallest number).

The numbers are 14, 16 and 18.
The sum of three odd numbers is odd but 270 is even, therefore there are no three odd numbers that add to 270. Similarly the product of two of more odd numbers is odd but 270 is even, therefore there are no three odd numbers that multiply together to get 270.
Many numbers can be expressed as the sum of two or more consecutive integers. For example, the number 15 can be written as the sum of consecutive integers in three different ways: 15=7+8 15=4+5+6 15=1+2+3+4+5 Look at numbers other than 15 and find out all you can about writing them as sums of consecutive whole numbers.

The "natural numbers" are the ones you use to count . . . 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Consecutive natural numbers are two or more of them that occur together as you count, with no holes or spaces in the group. 23, 24, and 25 are consecutive natural numbers. 63 and 64 are consecutive, but 63, 64, and 67 are not.
