Answer: The smallest number is 118.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the consecutive numbers are x-1, x, x+1

The sum of the three consecutive numbers is 357

(x-1) + x + (x+1) = 357

So, 3x = 357

x =  357 ÷ 3

x = 119  

The 3 consecutive numbers are: 118, 119 and 120  

The smallest out of the 3 is clearly 118.

Hope this helps!
