Answer:


5110, 5111, 5112

Explanation:

Let
x= first consecutive number


x + (x+1)+(x+2) = 15333 (
x is the first number,
x+1 would be the second consecutive number of the sequence, and
x+2 would be the third)


3x + 3 = 15333


3x = 15330


x = 5110


x+1 = 5110+1


= 5111


x+2 = 5110 + 2


= 5112


\therefore the consecutive numbers that sum up to
15333 are
5110, 5111, and
5112

Hope this helps :)
