If the three numbers are
X-1 +x+ x+1=84
3x=84
X=84/3=28
So the smallest number is x-1 that is 28-1=27...
X-1 +x+ x+1=84
3x=84
X=84/3=28
So the smallest number is x-1 that is 28-1=27...

the formula is x-1+x+x+1
3x=84
x=84/3
x= 28
now put the value
x-1
28-1=27
X
28=28
x+1=28+1
29
27,28,29 are the consecutive numbers
3x=84
x=84/3
x= 28
now put the value
x-1
28-1=27
X
28=28
x+1=28+1
29
27,28,29 are the consecutive numbers
