    The numbers are 5, 6 and 7.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the numbers = x, x+1 and x+2.

    The sum of the first and the second is 4 more than the third implies

    x+x+1=x+2+4

    Collecting like terms

    2x-x=6-1

    x=5

    x+1=6

    and x+2=7

    Therefore, the numbers are 5,6 and 7.
