Let x be smallest number. Then the 5 numbers are x, x+3, x+6, x+9 and x+12.

Given that mean is 12.

(x + x+3 + x+6 + x+9 + x+12) / 5 = 12

5x + 30 = 12 × 5

5x = 60 - 30

5x = 30

x = 30/5

x = 6

Hence, sum of 3rd and 4th no is

x+6 + x+9 = 2x + 15

x+6 + x+9 = 2×6 + 15

x+6 + x+9 = 27

Hence, the sum of 3rd and 4th number is 27.
