Let the first number be 2n (since it is even), and the next number be 2n+2
The product is (2n)(2n+2)=(2)(n)(2)(n+1)
And that is 4n(n+1)
Now. If n is odd, n+1 is even. Let n+1=2k
We have 4n(2k)=8k which is divisible by 8.
If n is even, let n=2k
We have 4(2k)(n+1)=8k , which is divisible by 8.
I hope this will be help ful to you
