For this problem, all you need to do is find the three #'s that add up to 156.
So, lets look at the answers and add them up.
A. 50, 52, 54
50 + 52 + 54 = 156
B. 51,52,53
51 + 52 + 53 = 156
C. 49,50,51
49 + 50 + 51 = 150
D. 49,51,53
49 + 51 + 53 = 153
We get the answers (50,52,54) and (51,52,53)
Now, consecutive numbers are numbers that in order, like 1,2,3.
Therefore, the answer is (51,52,53)

Questions like this require that you try different combinations of operations on the numbers shown to see if you can find a relationship. Here, the left column is a perfect square, so that is a clue.
