Answer:
=k⇒n(n+1)=2k. ... Hence n(n+1) = 2((2q+1)(q+1)), which is even. Hence n(n+1) is always even. Hence the product of two consecutive integers is always divisible by 2.

Answer:
Let the consecutive numbers be x,x+1
In 2 consecutive numbers 1 number is odd and 1 is even
Let x be even
Let x+1 be odd
Product
x(x+1)
x^2+x is divisible by 2
Since,the square of even number is always an even number and sum of 2 even numbers is always even.
Hence Verified.....
