Answer:

22,23,24

Explanation:

Well, you need to first find two consecutive integers that add up to 47, because that is the difference between the first digit and the total. This happens to be 23 and 24. Once you get these two numbers, the 22 comes intuitively, as you have to add 23 and 24 to get a difference between 22 and (22+23+24).
