Define x :
-----------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2.
-----------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
-----------------------------------------
Sum of these numbers is 72
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
-----------------------------------------
Solve for x :
-----------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 69
x = 23
-----------------------------------------
Find the numbers :
-----------------------------------------
1st number = x = 23
2nd number = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
3rd number = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : The numbers are 23, 24 and 25.

Answer:
Increase in the length of one side = 3.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Yossi has garage whose area is 280 ft²
After rebuilt their is increment in area by 50%
New Area = 280 × 150% = 420 ft²
Also we know that Area of Square = (Length) × (Length)
⇒ Length of Newly built garage = √420 = 20.5 ft
and Length of Originally garage = √280 = 16.7 ft
⇒ Increase in the length of one side = 20.5 - 16.7 = 3.8 ft
