If n stands for the smallest number, then the second and third number would be (n + 1) and (n + 2)

Write the equation based on what are given
the sum of three numbers = 72
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 72

Then, solve the equation
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 72
3n + 3 = 72
3n = 72 - 3
3n = 69
n = 69/3
n = 23

The smallest number is 23

|6+9x|\le24

this is the correct way to solve these types of exercises

then we will try to do the same where a is (6+9x) and b is 24

|6+9x|\le24\longrightarrow-24\le6+9x\le24

and solve the right inequality for x

-24\le6+9x\le24

subtract 6 for all expression

\begin{gathered} -24-6\le6-6+9x\le24-6 \\ -30\le9x\le18 \end{gathered}

now divide on 9

\begin{gathered} -\frac{30}{9}\le\frac{9x}{9}\le\frac{18}{9} \\  \\ -\frac{10}{3}\le x\le2 \end{gathered}

ok, this means that the x values ​​will be from -10/3 to 2 including these

solution is the red zone
