consec numbers are right after each other like 2, 3, 4

now if

2 is x

3 is x+1

4 is x+2

same for all consec numbers

=x +x+1 +x+2

Now this one says, 2 times the second and 3 times the third so its

=x +2(x+1) +3(x+2)


now the second part

x +2(x+1) +3(x+2) = 170

x + 2x + 2 + 3x + 6 = 170

6x + 8 = 170

6x = 170 -8

6x = 162

x = 27

so the numbers are 27, 28 and 29
