Answer:

The smallest number is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the smallest number to be X

So the continuous/consecutive numbers will be (x+1) and (x+2)

So,

x+x+1+x+2 = 99

3x+3 = 99

3x = 99-3

3x = 96 [Transposition]

x = 96/3 [Transposition]

x = 32

Therefore,

= (x)+(x+1)+(x+2)

= 32+33+34

= 99
