He told her about the three prophecies that he has been told by the witches. Thane of Cawdor, Thane of Glamis, and King of Scotland.
Macbeth's first reaction is to dismiss the prophecies out of hand, as would any sane person. However, the grain of truth, and his own ambition, are what lead him to wonder, though not necessarily believe, the prophecies to be true. It can be argued that it is not his reaction to the prophecies which is important, but that of his wife. Lady Macbeth, who does not hesitate to believe the prophecies, is the one to spur her husband into the actions that follow, and lead to his eventual downfall.

Because they do things in threes. They had three prophecies for Macbeth and now they have three for Banquo.
In Shakespeare's play "Macbeth," the three witches are the ones who make the prophecies about Macbeth becoming king. In addition to Lady Macbeth, Macbeth himself learns about the prophecies from the witches and later seeks them out for more information. Ultimately, Macbeth's actions are driven by his desire to fulfill the prophecies and maintain his position as king.
The three witches predict that Macbeth will become the Thane of Cawdor and then the King of Scotland. They also predict that Banquo's descendants will inherit the throne, sparking Macbeth's ambition and actions to make the prophecies come true.

The prophecies in Act 1 set the events in motion by planting the seed of ambition in Macbeth's mind. The prophecies in Act 4 provide Macbeth with a false sense of security and invincibility, leading to his downfall as he blindly trusts in their deceptive promises. Both sets of prophecies manipulate Macbeth's actions and thoughts, ultimately contributing to his tragic fate.
Macbeth is startled when the witches give him their prophecies of his future. However, they did not tell him how to accomplish these prophecies, so he madly and erratically takes things into his own hands with the help of Lady Macbeth.

The witches never said "Macbeth, Macbeth, Macbeth". In Act 4, Scene 1, both the First Apparition and the Second Apparition begin their prophecies by calling out, "Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth!" Macbeth responds to the First Apparition by thanking it for warning him against the Thane of Fife (Macduff). Macbeth responds to the Second Apparition with: "Had I three ears, I'd hear thee."
