Hi there!

The greatest number is 13. 

The definition of consecutive numbers is three counting numbers right next to each other on the number line. For example, 3, 4 and 5 would be consecutive numbers. 

Since
13 + 12 + 11 = 36, 
then the answer is 13, since it is the greatest number. 

Hope this helps!
