    Answer: 180, 185, & 190

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1st #: 5x

    2nd #: 5 (x + 1)

    3rd #: 5 (x + 2)

    1st # + 2nd # + 3rd # = sum

    5x + 5 (x + 1) + 5 (x + 2) = 555

    15x + 15 = 555

    15x = 540

    x = 36

    1st #: 5x = 5 (36) = 180

    2nd #: 5 (x + 1) = 5 (36 + 1) = 185

    3rd #: 5 (x + 2) = 5 (36 + 2) = 190
