The first of the two consecutive integers must be a multiple of 2.

We can therefore write it as 2n, where n is a whole number.
Explanation and Proof

An even number is divisible by 2, so it can be represented by 2n, where n is an integer. If we add 1 to an even number, then it will be odd. Therefore, an odd number can be represented as 2n + 1.


Being consecutive, the other even integer must be 2n + 2.
Multiplying the two numbers gives a product equal to
2n × (2n + 2) = 2n×2(n + 1) = 4n(n + 1)
which is 4 times n(n + 1)

This proves that the product of two consecutive even integers must be a multiple of 4.

Hope it's helpful for you
