Question

the product of the two consicutive positive integers is 132.find the two integers​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two consecutive positive integers x and x+1

Product of two positive consecutive integers is 132

X * x+1 = 132

X²+ 1x - 132

Solve by middle term splitting

X² +12x-11x-132 = 0

1x ( x+12) - 11 ( x+12)

(x-11)(x+12) = 0 ( x+12 ≠0)

X = 11 is one of the positive integer and other positive integer is x+1 = 11+1 = 12

So,the two positive integers are 11 & 12
