COMMENTS
"Consecutive" necessarily means consecutive in the list of composite numbers as opposed to consecutive in the integers, as the sum of any 3 consecutive integers is a multiple of 3. - Peter Munn, Aug 20 2023
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 41 is equal to 12+14+15.
MATHEMATICA
composite[ n_Integer ] := (k = n + PrimePi[ n ] + 1; While[ k - PrimePi[ k ] - 1 != n, k++ ]; k); b = {}; Do[ p = composite[ n ] + composite[ n + 1 ] + composite[ n + 2 ]; If[ PrimeQ[ p ], b = Append[ b, p ] ], {n, 1, 1000} ]; b
