Answer 1

The answers are 23, 24, and 25

Explanation:

Three consecutive numbers means 3 numbers in a row. So just find three numbers that all add up to 72.

23+24+25=72

Answer 2

23,24,25.

Explanation:

Consecutive numbers are numbers following in order. I found them unconventionally by first dividing 72 by 3, which is 24. So if there were 3 24s it would make 72. 23+25 is the same sum as 24+24. Then you add in the middle number, 24 and get 72.
