Consecutive numbers differ by one, which means that if you start with a certain integer x, you obtain the next integer by adding one.

So, if you start with n+1, the three consecutive numbers are

n+1,\quad (n+1)+1 = n+2,\quad (n+2)+1 = n+3

The sum of these three numbers is

(n+1) + (n+2) + (n+3) = 3n+6

This number is divisible by 3 because you can write it as

3n+6 = 3(n+2)

Note that this is true in general: the sum of three consecutive numbers is always divisible by three, because it is three times the middle number.
