<span>The goal in simplifying numbers
is to reduce it that can be best seen in the eye. Also in
converting units, you must take note of the units given in the problem. If you
don’t, you would get a lot of errors. Length is the measure of distance and can
be best represented by either in SI units or English units. Example of an SI unit is meter, m, and English
unit is feet, ft. You are given 3 inches and 2 feet. You can convert any of the
numbers into a number that would feel comfortable to you. I will take 3 inches.
Note that there are 12 inches in 1 feet. So divide 3 by 12 and you will get ¼ feet.
Then divide 2 feet to ¼ feet and you will get 8.</span>

-----------------------------------------
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.
