Answer:

Middle Number = -25247.9052

Explanation:

Sum of numbers = 254.772

Biggest Number = Moving the decimal point two digits to the right = 25477.2

Smallest Number = Moving the decimal point two digits to the left = 25.4772

Middle Number = ?

Biggest Number + Middle Number + Smallest Number= 254.772

25477.2 + Middle Number + 25.4772 = 254.772

Middle Number = 254.772 - 25477.2 - 25.4772

Middle Number = -25247.9052
