Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose,
the first number = x
the second number = x+1
the third number = x+1+1 = x+2
Question wise,
x+x+1+x+2 = 72
3x+3 = 72
3x = 72-3 = 69
x = 69/3 = 23
so the numbers are,
23,(23+1)=24 and (23+2)=25
Answer:

Decrease: 26.04
2.5 is your answer because first we divide the numbers then subtract 2 from both sides and simplify
