^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
pour les trois derniers mois
or
pour les 3 derniers mois
Your solution was a calque of the English structure and not idiomatic.
Instead of "for the last (passed) 3 months", it means "for the 3 last
months" (for the 3 months remaining at the end of the timeframe) which has
another meaning altogether.
