Answer:

Largest number = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive numbers by (x + 1) ; (x + 2) and (x +3)

x +1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 84         {Combine like terms}

x + x +x + 1  + 2 + 3 = 84

               3x + 6 = 84

                    3x = 84 - 6

                     3x = 78

                        x = 78/3

x = 26

Largest number = x + 3 = 26 + 3

                           =29
