[tex]\text{Let the 3 consecutive numbers be}~ x,~x+1~ \text{and} ~x+2.\\\\\text{According to the condition,}\\\\x+x+1+x+2 = 1146\\\\\implies 3x +3 = 1146\\\\\implies 3(x+1) = 1146\\\\\implies x+1 = \dfrac{1146}3 = 382\\\\\implies x= 382-1 = 381\\\\\text{Now, the numbers are}~ 381,~382~\text{and}~383[/tex]
